QUALIFICATIONS FOR JUDGES
The most important qualification for any judge is the willingness
to commit the time and energy to honor the hard work of
the students and to encourage their further interest in
science, math and engineering. The most important criterion
for judging is the degree to which a student has skillfully
applied the processes of science or engineering.
Category Judges for the High School Division should have
an MA, MS, or a PhD (preferred) in that category or in a
closely related field. These are general guidelines. Past
experience with science fairs and professional experience
in the category being judged will be considered in assigning
judges.
