Young Minds Awards - Design and Innovation

The Young Mind Awards (YMAs) are inspiring our youth at Middle School, High School, and Undergraduate levels to pursue their passion and bring forth Design Engineering and R&D as viable education and career options for scholars.  Interested teams (Middle, High School or Undergraduate) will design, build and present a project that solves a problem in one of five innovation categories: electronic, wireless, medical, electromechanical/mechanical, or research and development.  The winners will be announced at the Young Mind Awards ceremony in conjunction with the R&D 100 Awards at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas, Nevada on November 13, 2015 and will receive $1,000 or $5,000 awards for each level and category.

1. Entry video - Build your project and demonstrate it in a three (3) minute video with an in-depth presentation and explanation of the project, fully illustrating the extent of your design and the end product.
   
2. Written report that clearly explains project, the design, the functionality, and the end result of your creation.
