An Intel ISEF-Affiliated Science Fair is a science competition that is a member of the ISEF network. These competitions exist in every state in the U.S. as well as 40 countries. More information on the affiliated science fair nearest you and how to affiliate with the Intel ISEF is available through Science Service. Each entry is judged at least four times with category awards given in first, second, third and fourth place. Additional awards worth over 1.5 million include tuition scholarships, summer internships, scientific field trips and laboratory equipment provided by Intel, Science Service and nearly 70 other corporate, professional and government sponsors.
All judges have a Ph.D. or equivalent degree and eight years relevant experience.
Judges, who are recruited by the Host City Committee, volunteer their time and pay their own travel and accommodation expenses. The Intel ISEF is held in a different city each May. The Host City Committee is responsible for securing facilities, recruiting judges, promoting volunteerism, arranging tours as well as raising close to one million dollars for Intel ISEF support.
