MINT Fair 2025: School Projects Focused on Science and Technology

Information on

On May 19, 2025, Lakeside Park will once again be all about science: The 2025 STEM Fair will bring together students from all over Carinthia to present their projects in the fields of mathematics, computer science, natural sciences, and technology under the motto «Show what we can do.»

This year, too, the focus is not only on the result, but above all on the process of getting there: How does a question become a research project? How can ideas be turned into prototypes or experiments? The MINT Fair provides a space for exchange, inspiration, and recognition—supported by a panel of experts who honor the dedication of young scientists, and guided by dedicated teachers.

The event builds on the format’s successful track record. In 2023, the MINT Fair was supported and funded as a project within the framework of the EIL4MINT Educational Innovation Lab at the Educational Lab. Since then, the program has continued to evolve and is now a well-established tool for promoting STEM skills in Carinthia.

The MINT Fair impressively demonstrates how the Educational Lab, as an educational incubator, sparks young people’s interest in research and technology, fosters their curiosity, and at the same time highlights the dedication with which students are already tackling the major challenges of our time—from climate change to digitalization to technological innovations.
