Broadcom MASTERS International
The Broadcom MASTERS International was a companion programme to the domestic Broadcom MASTERS competition which takes place in the United States each year. The programme provided a unique opportunity for selected middle school students from the Regeneron International Science and Engineering Fair (ISEF) affiliated fairs around the world to participate in a broad educational programme, including participation in a number of Regeneron ISEF events and an outreach day.
Each year the Broadcom MASTERS International programme was attended by around 25 delegates representing a similar number of countries, regions, and territories. The delegates were chosen for their excellence in science, engineering and leadership. Participation in the programme was by invitation only. There are more than 400 science fairs from more than 80 countries, regions and territories affiliated to Regeneron ISEF including SciFest so we are very honoured to have been invited to nominate a delegate in each of the past four years. To be considered for nomination a student must have been under 15 years of age in the May of the event and have entered an individual project in a SciFest@College fair.
Unfortunately the Broadcom MASTERS International has not taken place since 2022.
