Intel International Science And Engineering Fair





LOCATION

Although it is an international event, the United States almost always hosts it (the 1996 fair was held in Hamilton, Ontario , Canada ; the 2012 fair will be held in Toronto , Ontario , Canada). The host city prepares a convention center and hotel accommodations for the event and hosts numerous events and manages college tours around the convention center.

The 2006 Fair will be held in Indianapolis, Indiana .


CONTESTANTS

Contestants are selected from regional fairs that feed into the ISEF. These fairs usually encompass multiple states or entire regions of a country. The regional fair committee is responsible for managing the fair when their city hosts the event.

Winners of the $50,000 grand prize scholarship at the 2005 Fair in Phoenix, Arizona were Ameen Abdulrasool from Chicago, Illinois , Stephen Schulz from Nordrhein-Westfahlen , Germany , and Gabrielle Alyce Gianelli from Orlando, Florida .
