ALBUQUERQUE — The 60th annual National Junior Science and Humanities Symposium (JSHS), a Tri–Service program administered by the National Science Teaching Association (NSTA), is 8 a.m. (MDT) Friday, April 22.

This Symposium will bring together the country’s emerging young leaders in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM).

Regional finalists from across the country will have the opportunity to present their original research to judges from the Departments of the U.S. Army, Navy, and Air Force and their peers.

JSHS encourages high school students to hone their research skills by conducting original research in one of eight STEM disciplines: Biomedical Science-Cellular/ Molecular, Chemistry and Materials Science, Engineering and Technology, Environmental Science, Life Science, Mathematics and Computer Science, Medicine and Health/Behavioral Science, and Physical Science.

Students work with mentors, teachers or STEM professionals, to develop their projects. JSHS finalists give both oral and poster presentations during the national event.
