Judges will have the opportunity to meet and interact with talented middle and high school students who are exploring their passions in science and engineering. Fair participants are eager to share their work with experts in their particular fields of interest. Judges will evaluate the quality of the work exhibited in the students’ projects.
Judges will be assigned projects to judge based on area of expertise and volume of student projects by category. Judges will review student project presentation and interview students about their project. Scores will be submitted digitally, allowing for quantitative and qualitative feedback and evaluation. Judges can choose to participate in morning judging, afternoon judging or all day judging. We are thankful for you, our STEM community, and appreciate you considering lending your expertise to the next generation of STEM leaders!

Judges also serve as ambassadors of their respective professions, judges will have the opportunity to provide insight and wisdom potentially influencing career choices for these future leaders. For many of these students, this will be the first encounter with science and engineering professionals.
Please click Judging-Guidelines-and-Criteria-for-Project-Evaluation to view the Judging Guidelines & Criteria and become familiar with the categories and questions. Elementary students have “how might we” questions to act as a guide for their submitted projects.
