CoSE's Student Project Showcase 2025 is on Friday, May 2 from 1 to 6 p.m. at the Student Life Events Center, Annex I

This annual event features a variety of exciting student projects, highlighting our faculty's commitment to providing SF State students with hands-on experience in the discovery of new knowledge. Join us to see an array of projects in Astronomy, Biology, Biochemistry, Chemistry, Computer Science, Engineering, Geosciences, Geography, Environmental Studies, Math, Physics, and Psychology.

Registration is open!

Because of the growth of the Showcase and the space limitations, we can only accept a maximum of 200 projects for the 2025 event. Submissions will be accepted until 11:59 p.m. on Friday, April 4, 2025 or until we reach 200 project submissions (whichever comes first). After that point, registration will be closed. We advise you to submit your project well before the April 4 deadline in order to maximize your chances of participating.

Please note that only complete submissions will be accepted.

If you would like more information about our Showcase, please reach out to Lannie at lannie@sfsu.edu.
