JSHS is designed to challenge, engage, and publicly recognize students (Grades 9-12) conducting research in the sciences, technology, engineering, or mathematics (STEM). Individual students compete for scholarships and recognition by presenting the results of their original research efforts before a panel of judges and an audience of their peers. Opportunities for career exploration, research lab visits, peer discussions, and networking are planned.
JSHS participants will
- Take part in a forum honoring individual achievement in STEM
- Network with peers who have similar interests
- Hear research presentations by other students
- Develop skills to help prepare for undergraduate and graduate pursuits in STEM fields
- Hear nationally renowned scientists speak on their work
- Qualify for significant scholarships and other recognition
- Advance to the national symposium
