The 2020 Western Upper Peninsula Science & Engineering Fair that was scheduled for March 18, will be transitioned to an online platform to ensure that students may still have a high-quality experience while maintaining safety. The announcement came in an email from Emily Gochis, the Director of the Western Upper Peninsula Michigan Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (MiSTEM) Network and project manager of the Lake Superior Stewardship Initiative. The Science & Engineering Fair was scheduled to take place in the Memorial Union Building Ballroom of computer science vs computer engineering Technological University.
“As you may be aware, Michigan Tech implemented a pandemic preparedness plan yesterday (Wednesday) that includes the suspension of face-to-face instruction and the reevaluation of all large gathering in an effort to minimize potential exposure to and spread of the COVID-19 virus,” Gochis stated in her email. ” For this reason, the STEM festival will be canceled completely.”
Gochis stated that the U.P. MiSTEM Network has worked closely with the school districts and MTU throughout this rapidly evolving situation. While there is no known health threat in our community or the U.P., the network wants to maintain a level of safety.
The 2020 Western UP Science & Engineering Fair and STEM Festival have been a collaborative effort of the Western U.P. MiSTEM Network, Michigan Tech Center for Science and Educational Outreach, Michigan Tech Chapter of Omega Chi Epsilon Chemical Engineering Honor Society and the Carnegie Museum.
