Forms

 Before you get started on your project, take some time to think about what you want to do. All projects must be reviewed by the Scientific Review Committee (SRC). SRC Review may be needed before you begin. CSRSEF suggests that you use the Regeneron ISEF Rules Wizard to help determine which forms you need. All the needed forms can be downloaded from the Regeneron ISEF Forms Page.

Required Forms

These forms are required by ALL projects. If these are the only forms you need, you do not have to wait for SRC Review to start your project. Submit your files & forms through STEMWizard.

**Please Note: If you are working with human subjects, vertebrate animals, controlled substances and/or potentially hazardous biological agents, you MUST have your project approved BEFORE you begin your experiment. The purpose of the SRC/IRB is to make sure that you are doing your science fair project safely and ethically, therefore, the committee must approve your project before you start collecting data. If you have already started your experiment and did not receive prior approval, please contact us and let us know about your situation.

Ethics Statement

Scientific fraud and misconduct are not condoned at any level of research or competition. Plagiarism, use or presentation of other researcher’s work as one’s own and fabrication or falsification of data will not be tolerated. Fraudulent projects will fail to qualify for competition in affiliated fairs or the ISEF.
