Information What Are Special Awards? Note: What were previously referred to as “Professional Society Awards” are now called “Special Awards.” This updated name better reflects the wide variety of organizations that participate in sponsoring these recognitions. “Special Awards” is a broad term used to describe any recognition given independently by a participating group, organization, or company at the Greater San Diego Science & Engineering Fair (GSDSEF). This includes industry organizations, professional societies, special interest groups, nonprofits, businesses, and government agencies. Each year, these organizations come together to celebrate student achievement by sponsoring Special Awards that honor excellence in specific fields - from engineering and environmental science to health, innovation, and community impact. Why Special Awards Matter Special Awards are a meaningful way to recognize and encourage promising young scientists and engineers. These awards connect students with real-world opportunities and highlight exceptional work that aligns with an organization’s mission or values. Over 175 Special Awards and scholarships - totaling more than $40,000 - are given each year. We thank all the local and national organizations who support GSDSEF students through their generous contributions. How Special Awards Work Customize your award : Define the award’s name, field, selection criteria, number of winners, and the prize. Awards may include certificates, event invitations, gift cards, or monetary awards. Choose your judges : Send your own representatives or have GSDSEF select winners based on your specifications. Celebrate achievement : Awardees are recognized during the GSDSEF Awards Ceremony. Sponsors receive contact information to follow up with their winners directly. Who Can Sponsor a Special Award? We welcome: Industry organizations Professional societies Special interest groups Companies and startups Government agencies Nonprofit organizations Academic institutions Professional Awards Sponsors and Criteria .pdf Download PDF • 466KB If you’re interested in sponsoring an award, contact our Special Awards Coordinator, Sejal Pabari, at sejal.pabari@gsdsef.org .

Whatever you come up with, “Google” it to make sure it is not a “been there-done that” project. Remember, even one change you make to an existing procedure/protocol makes it your own! Links to other successful project ideas...Again, these projects are NOT to be repeated or copied!!! They are to give you some ideas... General Science or Engineering: Science Buddies can help. Answer a short questionnaire about your interests and hobbies and it will use your responses to recommend ideas you will enjoy: https://www.sciencebuddies.org/science-fair-projects/project-ideas Environmental Inquiry Project Ideas: https://gradcoach.com/research-topics-environmental-sciences/ Geology Project Ideas: https://www.usgs.gov/programs/earthquake-hazards/science-fair-project-ideas Math Project Ideas: https://cms.math.ca/Education/mpsf/ You can also check out the Society for Science Database to see award-winning projects at the International Science and Engineering Fair to get ideas for a project. https://abstracts.societyforscience.org/ The California State Science Fairs has abstracts from winning projects from all over the state of California. - Pick a year and then click on "Projects organized by category".

Is my project an experiment/investigation or is it a demonstration of principle? Is the answer to my question already known? Will my investigation add something new to what is known about the topic? How much time will it take to conduct my research? Will I be able to meet all of the deadlines? Will it look like I did it in one day?
