ISEF HISTORY

Meet the New Generation of Innovators ISEF: The World’s Premier Pre-Collegiate STEM Competition

Since 1950, Society for Science has provided an international stage for the world’s best and brightest young scientists through its International Science and Engineering Fair, the world’s premier STEM competition. Every year, as part of the ISEF pipeline, tens of millions of students compete in science fairs around the globe at local, regional, and national levels. Hundreds of thousands rise to compete in the Society’s more than 400 ISEF-affiliated fairs in more than 80 countries, regions, and territories. Top winners at these fairs—about 1,800 students, almost half of them girls—earn the right to compete each May in the weeklong ISEF event. More than one quarter of the finalists either have a patent on their research or have a patent pending or in application. Student finalists showcase their independent research in 21 judging categories and compete for nearly $5 million in awards. The subject of two recent, critically acclaimed movies ( Inventing Tomorrow and Science Fair ), ISEF inspires millions of students to think differently and build a better future. Alumni—including Nobel Prize winners— have gone on to receive many honors, found companies, create solutions to the world’s most intractable problems, and contribute to a more scientifically literate society.
