The 2018 Spellman High Voltage Electronics
Clean Tech Competition is here!
Challenge your students to “Solve Climate Change”
Registration is open!
Win up to $10,000!
Climate change is real, the effects are far-reaching and the consequences will be devastating if nothing is done to mitigate them. It will be the next generation of scientific minds to create the idea or find the solution that will mitigate the effects of the human-changed climate. So, how can you get your students help?
Registration is open and waiting for the students of Italy! 2017 saw 26 different nations sign teams up to be a part of the Competition and with your help, we can continue to grow that number in 2018, but we can’t do it alone. So far 12 different nations have signed up teams: Canada, China, Egypt, Fiji, France, India, Indonesia, Ireland, Jamaica, Moldova, Singapore, Spain and the United States. This is a wonderful opportunity for the high school students in Italy to show the world they’re capable of changing it for the better! I want this to be an opportunity for the high school students that ANISN serves to show their knowledge and passion for STEM to the world as we try to solve the very real issue the world is facing: Climate Change.
The Clean Tech Competition is an international research and design challenge for 15-18 year old pre-university students. This is an educational opportunity for students across the world that challenges students to be innovative while encouraging their passion for the sciences and we want all the eligible students of Italy to participate in this year’s competition!
Now is the time to tell your teachers and spread the word to the students so they can gather their teams and get ready to register! There is no limit to the number of teams per school/ organization and I hope to see many registrations thanks to ANISN. I hope that in your position, you can help get this information to the students your organization serves.
