We are the Eastern Iowa Science and Engineering Fair (EISEF).

Our mission is to inspire Eastern Iowa’s students to pursue careers in science, engineering, and math.

To accomplish our mission, every year we do the following:

  • We challenge the students in grades 6–12 to do science projects.

  • We support their parents and teachers in guiding their projects.

  • We invite them to Cedar Rapids to exhibit their projects and explain what they learned.

  • We recognize the deserving students with awards, prizes, and scholarships.

  • We send the very best students to the International Science and Engineering Fair, to exhibit their projects alongside the best students from around the world.

  • We raise funds and mobilize volunteers and resources to make all this happen.

  • We try to have fun doing it, and make it fun for everyone else!

The Eastern Iowa Science and Engineering Fair (EISEF) takes place each year in March, usually on the third Saturday, in Lindale Mall in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. The next Fair is scheduled for Saturday, March 21, 2026.

EISEF is an all-volunteer run organization that depends on the generosity of individual, foundation, and corporate donors to give our students the best experience possible.
