The STEM Engagement Programme (SEP) promotes the application process and allows high school students to contribute to the agency’s mission to advance science, technology, engineering, and math exploration. The Office of STEM organisation employs a performance assessment and evaluation strategy consisting of three main components: the development of an idea or concept, sustainable activities, and a learning agenda. 

This competition is for 9th–12th grade students in India who wish to showcase their high school concepts, ideas, research, and innovation projects in science, engineering, and technology. All school students from private to public schools are eligible.

This competition is an excellent platform for students who are budding innovators, big thinkers, achivers, young scientists, and young engineers to showcase their passion in their respective fields by communicating their findings to experts. The top 30–50 winners will be awarded the sponsored STEM Engagement Programme at the Singapore Science Centre, organised by STEM Organisation India, for one week. NSTEMC’s is open to 9th, 10th, 11th, and 12th grade students. Participants have to submit high school concepts, ideas, research, and innovation projects that are student-initiated or from school programmes such as youth research programmes, science mentorship programmes, robotics, data science, coding, and technology-driven programmes, etc.

The topics range across all areas of science, engineering, and technology. NSTEMC’s objective is to be relevant to better align with high school concepts, ideas, research, innovation projects, and enterprise in the Indian landscape through the elements of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. The competition hopes to continue to ignite and inspire the wonders of science in youth, technology, engineering skills, and future generations of scientists and engineers while nurturing their passion for scientific inquiry and developing creative problem-solving skills in STEM fields.
