The Armenian Engineers and Scientists of America (AESA) is excited to
announce that the 13th AESA Science Olympiad will be held at the Grand
Salon of California State University Northridge (CSUN) on Sunday March
23.
The committee is comprised of volunteers, supporters, professional
engineers, scientists, judges, mentors, community sponsors and
endowment donors, all working together for the ultimate goal of
increasing interest and passion in science and engineering among young
Armenian students from Armenian, public and other private schools. The
Olympiad provides interscholastic academic competition in the fields
of physical sciences and life sciences for two grade levels, middle
school (grades 6-8) and high school (grades 9-12).
"We are actively seeking the community's support in encouraging family
members in grades 6 to 12 to participate with a prepared science
project and spend a fun day of science with their peers" stated AESA
President Vasken Yardemian. The Science Olympiad follows the
California State Science Fair rules and regulations. During the
evaluation and interview process, the judges provide constructive
feedback to all students for future improvements of their projects and
presentation skills leading them to prepare for the county and state
competitions. The Olympiad each year also invites a professional
speaker to present a unique scientific topic exposing students and
inspiring them to a variety of career path opportunities.
Cash prizes are also awarded, with 1st place winning $500, 2nd Place
winning $250, 3rd Place $100, and Honorable Mention $50. In addition,
each prize is accompanied with an obsidian medallion made in
Armenia. The road to the 13th AESA Science Olympiad has three
requirements: a filled out application by the deadline of March 14,
2014; a $25 application fee per project to be included with the
application (check to be written in order of AESA Science Olympiad);
and the project poster is to be dropped off at a designated location
no later than March 19, 2014. The application can be downloaded at
www.aesa.org/Committees/ScienceOlympiad.
Established in 1983 in Glendale, California, AESA is a non-partisan
and non-sectarian philanthropic organization focused primarily on
addressing the professional, technical and scientific needs of fellow
Armenian engineers, scientists, industrialists and architects
throughout the world. For more information, check AESA's website at
