Judging
The judging committee will consist of representatives of TAE Aerospace.
The committee will review a student written response submitted by the applicant/s outlining why this
aerospace-related project or assignment is innovative. Some applicants may be asked to make themselves available
for an interview to finalise results.
Schools must submit a letter of recommendation from a teacher, or mentor, along with a statement from
the relevant Aerospace HOD, Deputy Principal or Principal supporting the student's application to assist the judging committee for the application to be complete.

Is Innovative - Is willing to experiment with innovative products, processes, and services formulation and implementation of innovative, pioneering ideas.
