Register for Young Scientist Competition

The June 15 deadline is fast approaching for Discovery Education's Young Scientist Challenge, a competition that asks students to create a short video explaining a specific scientific concept.

Over the past nine years, more than 540,000 middle school students have been nominated to participate in the competition. Winners have gone on to speak in front of members of Congress, work with the nation's top scientists, and pursue academic careers in the sciences.
