IEEE Special Awards presentation – IEEE Young Engineering Awards 2025 – Tuesday 24 June 2025 at IEEE NJ HQ

On Sunday 23 March 2025, IEEE evaluated projects at TNJSF and determined Special winners for the IEEE Young Engineering Awards 2025.

We’d love for you to join us for the IEEE Young Engineer Award 2025 Presentation! This special event celebrates the incredible achievements of our rising stars in engineering on Tuesday June 24, 2025.

At the presentation, you’ll have the opportunity to hear directly from several of this year’s deserving Young Engineer Award winners as they share insights into their groundbreaking work.

We’re also thrilled to announce a special presentation from the IEEE History Center. This promises to be a fascinating look into the rich legacy and impact of IEEE.

Your presence would mean a lot to us and the award recipients. It’s a wonderful chance to celebrate excellence and connect with future leaders in the STEM fields.

What is TNJSF?

The TNJSF (formerly the NJRSF) is a science fair competition for high school students (grades 9-12) for students in ten counties of northern New Jersey. The mission of the TNJSF is to support, encourage, and recognize student involvement in scientific research and engineering design. It is our belief that students can only truly appreciate the creative nature of the process if they have actually experienced it themselves. In addition, we endeavor to provide resources which further this overarching goal, including giving students various opportunities to interact with professional scientists and engineers. The opportunity to partake of the TNJSF itself as well as other resources we offer is intended to be open to all high school students in our northern NJ region.

IEEE volunteers are needed for Special Awards Judging at the Fair

Special awards judging takes place on Sunday morning. Judges are asked to arrive at the judges’ room by 9:15 a.m. to determine their project assignments with their team and to receive instructions from the Judging Coordinator. Judging of projects takes place from 10:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. During this time, judges will meet with students at their project displays and evaluate their work. At least 2 judges on the award team should see each project under consideration. At 12:00 p.m., the judges reconvene in the judges’ room to discuss the projects and determine which projects will be awarded. Judging of special awards is usually completed by 1:00 p.m.
