Description:

Abstract: The Intel International Science and Engineering Fair (Intel ISEF), the world’s largest international pre-college science competition, annually provides a forum for more than 1,500 high school students from over 40 countries to showcase their independent research. The ISEF is the premiere science competition in the world exclusively for students in grades 9-12.

Each year, millions of students worldwide compete in local and school-sponsored science fairs; the winners of these events go on to participate in ISEF-affiliated regional and state fairs from which the best win the opportunity to attend the ISEF. The ISEF unites these top young scientific minds, showcasing their talent on an international stage, enabling them to submit their work to judging by doctoral level scientists - and providing the opportunity to compete for nearly $4 million in prizes and scholarships.

Society for Science & the Public partners with Intel- along with dozens of other corporate, academic, government and science-focused sponsors - who provide support and awards for the ISEF each year.

The Intel ISEF 2008 Presented by Agilent Technologies will be held May 11-17, 2008 in Atlanta, GA.
