The International Science and Engineering Fair (ISEF) draws over 1,700 finalists from 60+ countries. Universities notice who gets there. So do research institutions, scholarship committees, and science communities around the world.

Getting to ISEF takes more than a good idea. You need to understand how the qualification pipeline works, what judges actually reward, and when to start. In this session, we will walk you through all of it, using real examples from ISEF 2026 winners to show you exactly what strong research looks like.You'll learn: 

• How ISEF works and how to qualify

• A close look to the 2026 winners
