Students Showcase Ingenuity at the STEM Fair

The Fader Innovation Center was alive with energy as students proudly presented their capstone STEM projects to the community on Monday, April 28. This year's fair featured a remarkable range of topics, including prosthetic hand models, museum alarm systems, soil health analyses, grassland restoration initiatives, phytoremediation techniques, and the design of efficient wind and water turbines.

Each project reflected not just technical skill, but a deep commitment to solving real-world problems—from improving access to medical devices to protecting the environment. Throughout the exhibition, students shared their research, explained their design processes, and inspired everyone with their creativity, critical thinking, and passion for innovation.

The STEM Fair is a powerful reminder that when students are given the tools and encouragement to explore, invent, and imagine, they are truly life ready.
