About this resource
"The Lemelson-MIT Program celebrates outstanding inventors and inspires young people to pursue creative lives and careers through invention.We recognize emerging collegiate inventors whose inventions could impact important sectors of the global economy and honor mid-career inventors with a prestigious cash prize. We also encourage youth to invent and develop their hands-on skills in Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) through two national grants initiatives for grades 7-12." The website provides resources for young inventors, and Activity Guides for hands-on STEM & invention activities.
