    Google Science Fair
    Google seeks gifted students ages 13 to 18 to participate in the annual Global Science Fair. The competition challenges students to submit projects that will be judged by a panel of scientists and researchers.
    Intel International Science and Engineering Fair (Intel ISEF)
    Held annually in May, the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair (Intel ISEF) is the world’s largest international pre-college science competition, providing an annual forum for more than 1,700 high school students from over 70 countries, regions, and territories to showcase their independent research and compete for about $5 million in awards in 17 categories.
    Southern Appalachian Science and Engineering Fair (SASEF) (Knoxville, TN)
    The Southern Appalachian Science and Engineering Fair is sponsored by The University of Tennessee to develop an outlet for creative energy and analytical skills in our youth. Students in our Senior Division (grades 9-12) compete for two opportunities to represent the SASEF at the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair. Senior team projects also compete for an opportunity to attend ISEF. Students in the Junior Division (grades 6-8) compete separately for their own awards. The younger students learn a great deal by being involved in the competition each year. Through their experience with the fair, they gain insight that will prove useful in future endeavors.
    West Tennessee Regional Science Fair (Jackson, TN)
    Students in Western Tennessee can compete in this Regional Science Fair.

    All Science Fair Projects
    This site is designed to help you and your child search for useful ideas and tips for your experiments. Here, you will find literally hundreds of experiments of every kind in every discipline of science from chemistry, biology, physics to even human psychology. We're confident that our powerful color-coded search tool will help quicken your research tremendously. Also, experience shows that many people find it helpful to learn from what others already know. This site strongly suggests that instead of copying these experiments blindly, you try to understand the principles demonstrated and then take those principles and apply them to your own experiment in a different and more creative way.
