27th Annual Huggins High School Science Seminar

Each year, we invite talented high school students to join us for an action-packed day of interactive and engaging presentations. The Huggins High School Science Seminar connects passionate science students from across the Maritimes with today's innovative scientists. Established in 1986 by Dr. Charles Huggins, Acadia alumnus, Chancellor Emeritus, and Nobel laureate, the seminar introduces students to advances in science and technology that offer them exciting opportunities for involvement in the future.

The 2012 seminar on May 4 included three keynote presentations involving speakers from Acadia and beyond, a chemistry show, and a scholarly showdown in our first-ever lifeboat debate.  We extend our thanks to the students and speakers who made the seminar a success.
