Nearly 300 middle school and high school students attended the third annual MidTN STEM Innovation Hub STEM Expo at MTSU's Science Building Thursday, April 9.

Nearly 130 projects, the most in the three years of the event, were exhibited by students from more than 20 Midstate high schools and middle schools and one from McMinn County in East Tennessee.

In addition to MTSU, sponsors included Siemens, the Discovery Center at Murfree Spring, Aegis Sciences, Belmont and Lipscomb universities, Vanderbilt University School of Engineering, Metro Nashville Public Schools and more.

The sponsors awarded 15 acrylic trophies to posters and presentations considered the best by 26 judges, nearly half of whom are MTSU doctoral candidates. Every participant received a medal.

In 2016, event organizers plan to hold the event in Nashville.
