Welcome Judges!

Each year, nearly 10,000 students from across the state complete an independent, science research or engineering project. Judges play an important role, not only as objective evaluators, but also as research mentors capable of providing constructive feedback and encouragement. By lending your expertise you will have a role in developing and nurturing Ohio’s pipeline of STEM talent.
