Original Post:

The Singapore Science & Engineering Fair (SSEF) is a national competition organised by the Ministry of Education (MOE), the Agency for Science, Technology and Research (A*STAR) and the Science Centre Singapore (SCS). The SSEF is affiliated to the prestigious Intel International Science and Engineering Fair (Intel ISEF), which is regarded as the Olympics of science competitions.

SSEF is open to all secondary and pre-university students between 15 and 20 years of age. Participants can submit research projects from programmes such as the Science Research Programme (SRP), Technology & Engineering Research Programme (TERP), Science Mentorship Programme (SMP), Young Defence Scientists Programme (YDP) or other projects in the school level or as simply a student-initiated project. The project topics range across all areas of science and engineering.

Students exhibit their projects at the fair, and will be judged by a number of judges from local universities, polytechnics as well as research institutes. Winners will represent Singapore to compete at the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair.

The following students:
Benjamin Teng (S3-08)
Justin Tang (S3-07)

have completed the SSEF judging on 9 March and achieved the
SSEF 2017 Special Award by the Institute of Engineers Singapore.

During the pre-judging phase, the students were given the following comments:

"The two students have demonstrated good understanding of an advanced research topic and combined with their creativity they managed to test their hypothesis in a compact yet reliable experimental set-up."
