Events and Activities
Texas 4-H Roundup Science Fair
The 4-H Roundup Science Fair provides youth the opportunity to showcase their 4-H project work through the application of scientific research, engineering, technology and/or experimentation. Participants will 1) construct a poster, 2) deliver a short oral presentation, and 3) respond to judges’ interview questions. Projects should follow either the Scientific Method or Engineering Design Process and the poster formatted accordingly. Visit the State Roundup webpage to learn more.
STEM Ambassadors
The Texas 4-H STEM Ambassador program is a state-wide team who works in a youth-adult partnership structure to promote, educate, and inspire others in the area of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. The team consists of 4-H members 15 years and older who have a strong interest in promoting STEM to other 4-H members, volunteers, as well as groups outside of 4-H. The team meets throughout the year to develop and support programs in areas such as robotics, photography, and video production.
Applications to become a STEM Ambassador are open July 1-31 to all senior-aged 4-H members.
