The Intel International Science and Engineering Fair (ISEF) is a premier global science competition where high school students present original research projects across dozens of scientific and engineering disciplines. Students first compete at local and regional affiliated fairs, with top performers earning the opportunity to advance to the international competition. At ISEF, participants showcase their independent research through poster presentations evaluated by professional scientists and engineers, competing for millions of dollars in awards and scholarships. It is one of the most selective and prestigious science competitions in the world, drawing the most promising young researchers from over 75 countries.
Designing studies, testing hypotheses, and drawing evidence-based conclusions.
Breaking down a challenge and working through it methodically to a solution.
Evaluating information carefully before drawing a conclusion or making a decision.
