STEM Competition for High School Students

Siemens Foundation, in partnership with the College Board, is sponsoring the Siemens Competition in Math, Science & Technology, which recognizes remarkable talent early on, fostering individual growth for high school students who are willing to challenge themselves through science research. Through this competition, students have an opportunity to achieve national recognition for science research projects that they complete in high school.

Students or teams of students can enter to win scholarships of up to $100,000 for their work. Registration is open. Visit the College Board website for more information.

The deadline for project submission is Monday, October 1, 2012, at 5:00 pm EST.

Siemens Competition For Math, Science and Technology Students ($1,000 * Deadline: 10/3/2011)

The Siemens Foundation, in partnership with the College Board, established the Siemens Competition. The Competition promotes excellence by encouraging students to undertake individual or team research projects in science, mathematics, engineering, and technology or in combinations of these disciplines.

With its high academic standards, rigorous judging process, and emphasis on authentic scientific research, it has quickly become the leading science and mathematics research-based competition for high school students in the United States.

The Competition promotes high academic standards in math, science, and technology and gives you an opportunity to further your research skills. It is nationally recognized and highly regarded by the most prestigious colleges and universities. [SOURCE]

Grant Proposal: Siemens Foundation (National BDPA)

BDPA Education and Technology Foundation (BETF) and National BDPA Vice President Paulette Johnson-Davis worked together on a $25,000 grant proposal to the Siemens Foundation. We hope to get funding for the High School Computer Competition that can be used to support the youth education training in our 45 local BDPA chapters.

We don't expect any answer on our proposal until May 2011.
