Siemens Competition

The Siemens Foundation established the Siemens Competition in Math, Science and Technology in 1999. The Siemens Competition seeks to promote excellence by encouraging students to undertake individual or team research projects. It fosters intensive research that improves students' understanding of the value of scientific study and informs their consideration of future careers in these disciplines. You can compete as an individual or as a member of a team. Individual projects promote independent research. Team projects foster collaborative research efforts as well as individual contributions to the cooperative endeavor.

Scholarships for winning projects range from $1,000 to $100,000.
