ScienceConnect 2026

Thank you for joining us at ScienceConnect 2026

At this annual event, students, faculty, and staff had the opportunity to explore interactive demos, enjoy giveaways, and connect with departments, student organizations, and university resource teams across George Mason’s Fairfax and SciTech campuses.

This year’s highlights included the popular plant sale, which raised funds for the College of Science Emergency Fund, and a blanket-making station supporting local shelters. New and returning students explored research opportunities, discovered co-curricular programs, and connected with other members of the Mason Science Community.

Check out the photos below to see highlights from ScienceConnect 2026 on both campuses.
