The Choose Ohio First Scholar Showcase is an opportunity for scholars and institutions to highlight research and academic projects in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) disciplines and STEM education programs supported by Choose Ohio First scholarships. The Showcase is a great opportunity to observe the innovations of Ohio’s talented STEM students on a multitude of STEM topics ranging from architecture to zoology.

The Showcase will kick off with opening remarks from Lt. Governor Jon Husted and Chancellor Randy Gardner. Attendees will then be able to visit the scholars’ poster presentations through a virtual platform.
