Regeneron ISEF 2024 runs from 11-17 May. Our AUSSEF team will have two days for sight-seeing and preparations before the Fair begins. 1800 students from more than 70 countries will be vying for USD $8 million in prizemoney and scholarships at the world’s largest pre-collegiate Science and Engineering Fair.

Projects to be received by 11:59:59 pm in the time zone of your Australian state or territory. Entries will be time-stamped and any late entry will not be judged. An appeal process will be established, with the final decision to be made by the AUSSEF Scientific Review Committee (SRC). Please ensure entries are submitted well before the deadline so internet issues do not affect your submission.

National Short-listing Judging Panels in the 22 ISEF categories will triple-mark all projects and short-list the top 1-4 projects from each category to be forwarded to the Stage 2 Judging Panel.

Stage 2 Judging Panel will feature senior assessors from the Stage 1 Judging who will narrow the short-listed projects down to 20-24 projects.

The ISEF Selection Judging Panel, independent from Stage 1 and 2 judging, will assess the short-listed projects from Stage 2 and rank the top 10 projects. Stage 3 Judging will include each short-listed student or team having a 10-15 minute online video interview with members of the ISEF Selection Judging Panel (details to be confirmed).

Judges in each stage will be using the published judging criteria that are based on the ISEF judging criteria.

The top nine project winners and their teachers and adult sponsor will be notified by email on Wednesday 18th December 2024.
