1 - BIOLOGY/MICROBIOLGY
The science of life or of origin, structure, reproduction, growth and development of living organisms collectively. Projects in the category could involve the biology of organisms from the macroscopic scale to the microscopic scale (e.g., bacteria, viruses, protozoa, fungi, yeast, genes, etc.) 2 - CHEMISTRY/BIOCHEMISTRY The science that deals with the composition structure and properties of chemical processes and phenomena of substance and the transformation that they undergo. Projects in this category could involve physical chemistry, organic chemistry, inorganic chemistry, materials, plastics, fuels, pesticides, metallurgy, soil chemistry, etc. This category also includes the chemistry of life processes such as molecular biology, molecular genetics, enzymes, photosynthesis, blood chemistry, protein chemistry, food chemistry, hormones, etc. 3 - COMPUTER SCIENCE The science that deals with the theoretical aspects of computers including storage and the transformation of data using computers. This category pertains to the study and development of computer hardware, software engineering, Internet networking and communications, graphics (including human interface), simulations/virtual reality or computational science (including data structures, encryption, coding and information theory). 4 - EARTH and SPACE SCIENCE The body of sciences that includes geology, mineralogy, physiography, oceanography, meteorology, climatology, astronomy, speleology, seismology, geography, etc. Projects in this category could also be concerned with environmental science such as the study of pollution (air, water, and land) sources and their control as well as ecology. 5 - ENGINEERING Technology. Projects that directly apply scientific principles to manufacturing and practical uses. Projects in this category could involve civil, mechanical, aeronautical, chemical, electrical, photographic, sound, automotive, marine, heating, refrigerating, transportation, and environmental engineering; electronics; etc. 6 - MATHEMATICS The science of numbers and their operations, interrelations, combinations, generalizations, and abstractions of space configurations and their structure. Development of formal logical systems or various numerical and algebraic computations, and the application of these principles. Projects in this category could involve calculus geometry, number theory, statistics, complex analysis, probability, etc. 7 - MEDICINE and HEALTH The study of diseases and health of humans and animals. Projects in this category could involve dentistry, pharmacology, pathology, ophthalmology, nutrition, sanitation, dermatology, allergies, speech and hearing, etc. 8 - PHYSICS Theories, principles and laws governing energy and the effect of energy on matter. Projects in this category could involve solid state physics, optics, acoustics, particle physics, nuclear physics, atomic energy, superconductivity, fluid and gas dynamics, thermodynamics, semiconductors, magnetism, quantum mechanics, biophysics, etc |
