Youth Technology Exposition (YTE)
ASEI has always supported STEM and youth empowerment initiatives. Our University Connect and STEM programs intersect at the YTE event . The YTE is intended to provide a forum for young engineers and scientists to showcase their work in the areas of engineering and emerging technologies .
Adapting to Covid times where we can not meet in person to see science fair projects and interact with students and to recognize deserving students, we have invited young scientists and engineers from High School to Undergrad engineering students to participate in our flagship YTE during this virtual ASEI 34th National Convention.
Each participant gets a chance to speak while showing their work. Selected from preliminary rounds of hundreds of participants, the final 5 will be given a chance to present their work in front of the entire ASEI convention audience and the face judges' questions in a live Q&A session. Combined with Judges score, audience polling will have a swing vote to determine the ultimate winner of the YTE.
Last year top 3 finalists were women. Who says engineering is lacking diversity? Lets see what happens this time!!
