USA Science and Engineering Festival 2016 - Day 1

April 19, 2016
Hundreds of exhibitors and hundreds of thousands of visitors made this a STEM-packed weekend.

The nation’s largest science expo just closed, and it was a packed house from start to finish. The USA Science and Engineering Festival ran all week, but everything built up to the STEM Expo over the weekend—an event with over 3000 exhibitors and an estimated 350,000 people.
