Thank you for your interest in becoming an IJAS Student Runner!
Student Volunteer Runners play a vital role in keeping the IJAS State Exposition running smoothly. Runners assist with delivering materials, supporting judging operations, and helping participants, judges, and staff throughout poster and paper sessions. This is a great opportunity to gain hands-on event experience, connect with the IJAS community, and contribute to one of Illinois’s largest student science events.
We welcome applications from responsible students ages 11 and up who are available to volunteer on April 24–25, 2026 at SIU-Carbondale.
