Fair Registration Site
Due to the retirement of Scienteer at the end of August, 2023, the Texas Science and Engineering Fair and its Regional Fairs decided to adopt STEM Wizard as our registration website. The UTA-FWRSEF Portal is the site for our regional school teachers and student registration.
Middle school students must fill out the Safety Consent Form and upload it to STEM Wizard during registration. This is a simplified form for Middle School participants.
Fair Operational Site
An operational website and database has been set up at the link below and provides access to Fair Administrators, Teachers, and Judges to view the current entries and to perform essential functions. Teachers may log in with their Scienteer email as the username and their Scienteer ID number as their initial password. Judges and Fair Admin personnel will have separately assigned login credentials. Once logged in you may change your password.
- Teachers
- Log in to view all projects and to create Project Folder Links for your student's projects in which you place files and images of each project for the judges to preview.
You can enter online notes to yourself regarding all projects (even other school projects) by reviewing the abstracts.
- Judges
- Log in to view all projects, your assigned projects, all teams, and your assigned teams.
You can enter online notes to yourself regarding all projects (including your own) by reviewing the abstracts.
Once project files and photos have been uploaded you will have links to access them online to preview before the live judging on Fair Day.

To Our Prospective Judges
The UT Arlington-Fort Worth Regional Science and Engineering Fair (UTA-FWRSEF) is the longest continually operating science fair in the United States, bringing together several hundred student exhibitors from a ten-county area of north Texas. We support our mission of promoting interest in science and engineering by offering significant educational opportunities to our participants.
Your voluntary contribution of time and effort is indispensable to the success of the UTA-FWRSEF. Quality judging, together with personal feedback to participants, has encouraged science education among the teachers, parents, and students. Your participation will help to continue this fine tradition.
Sincerely,
Jan de Nijs

The UT Arlington-Fort Worth Regional Science and Engineering Fair is the oldest, continually operating regional science and engineering fair in the state of Texas and is also the biggest science and engineering fair in our region. Students from 10 counties (Cooke, Denton, Erath, Hood, Johnson, Palo Pinto, Parker, Somervell, Tarrant, and Wise) participate in order to advance the study of science, mathematics, and engineering in the great state of Texas!
The UT Arlington-Fort Worth Regional Science, & Engineering Fair, now in its 73rd year, is an organization made up of community and business volunteers whose purpose is to focus attention on science and stimulate interest in students beyond class work. The Science Fair offers an opportunity to display meritorious scientific talent through exhibits, and to arouse the interest of the public in science abilities of students and teachers.
Any student from grades 6 - 12 in public, private, home school, or parochial school in the Fort Worth region may enter the fair. Although most schools usually hold their own district fairs, there are other methods students can follow to participate in the UTA-FWRSEF. If all Regeneron Science and Engineering Fair's guidelines and rules are adhered to, students may still enter the Regional Fair on an individual basis. The UT Arlington-Fort Worth Regional Science and Engineering Fair continues to be one of only a few Regional Fairs in Texas that does not charge a participation fee to the schools and/or to the students. Although most schools usually hold their own district fairs, there are other methods that students can follow to participate in the UTA-FWRSEF.
Details may be found on the ISEF Website. If you need assistance with a student's project please forward your questions and contact information to director@fwrsef.org.
Projects needing approval from the Scientific Review Committee (SRC) must be approved either by a local SRC or the UTA-FWRSEF SRC before the experiment starts.Deadline for SRC approval is always in mid-December prior to the Fair in mid-February. Check the Info tab for the latest information regarding times and dates for the fair.
