Award winners have been announced for Intel International Science and Engineering Fair (ISEF) that was held in Pittsburgh, Penn., recently. Among the winners was Cavalier, N.D., native Alyssa Kemp, the Senior Division’s third place winner at the 68th Annual North Dakota State Science and Engineering Fair, held in the UND Memorial Union in April.

In Pittsburgh, Kemp won two very generous scholarships from Arizona State University and Drexel University—the Intel ISEF Scholarship and Full Tuition scholarship, respectively—for her poster “Buffering the Bloom: The Effect of Nutrient Management Practices on Pond Eutrophication.”
           
At the North Dakota State level, each region sends 1-3 students (depending on participation) to ISEF.  This year, twelve students qualified and travelled to the international fair.  Julian Spilman from Mandan High School, received a Fourth Award ($500) in Environmental Engineering for her project “ Enhanced Biofilter Control of CAFO Green House Gas Emissions”.  A complete list of State Fair Awards can be found  here
