Competition: NSF 2026 Idea Machine


Do you have students with BIG IDEAS?  The window is open for the National Science Foundation 2026 Idea Machine!

From the NSF website -

The NSF 2026 Idea Machine is a competition to help set the U.S. agenda for fundamental research in science and engineering. Participants can earn prizes and receive public recognition by suggesting the pressing research questions that need to be answered in the coming decade, the next set of “Big Ideas” for future investment by the National Science Foundation (NSF). It's an opportunity for researchers, the public and other interested stakeholders to contribute to NSF's mission to support basic research and enable new discoveries that drive the U.S. economy, enhance national security and advance knowledge to sustain the country's global leadership in science and engineering.

As an added incentive, Western Michigan University is adding to the opportunity for any "potential future WMU student ages 14 and up in the state of Michigan (defined as enrolled in an accredited high school or community college)."

Who: Anyone 14 years of age or older
When: Application submission to NSF October 26
