Abstract
The IEEE Aerospace Conference sponsors a unique Junior Engineering and Science Conference where children in grades K-12 present talks on scientific and engineering topics. This highly successful and growing conference is designed to encourage young students to learn more about a technical topic and sharpen their presentation skills. The Junior Conference runs in much the same format as a professional engineering conference. Participants report that the experience gives them confidence and many want to pursue careers in technical fields. They also testify that the experience is fun!
