The UIC Science Fair 2020, organized by the Integrated Science and Engineering Academic Society (ISEAS) and the Integrated Science and Engineering Division, was held online via ZOOM on November 25, 2020. The event celebrated students’ achievements in scientific research and was a big success with all the participation and kind interests of the UIC community. Despite the pandemic, 22 students presented their research on various topics ranging from nanotechnology and biotechnology, to environmental science and engineering.
