DiscoverE Educator Awards

Deadline: March 16, 2015

Are you an educator who inspires students to discover engineering or know someone who is?

Apply NOW or nominate someone for a 2015 DiscoverE Educator Award.

Part of National Engineers Week, the awards showcase educators who are inspiring tomorrow’s innovation generation. Unique to this program, engineers and engineering students are part of the nomination process.

Teacher nominees must be full-time U.S. or international school-based educators teaching in grades 6-12 and nominated by an engineer or engineering student (college or graduate level).

The top three DiscoverE Educator winners will receive a trip to Washington, D.C., for a recognition event in June, a $2,000 cash prize, and a 3M gift pack of classroom supplies. Their engineer/student nominators will also receive the trip to Washington, D.C., while eight runners-up will receive $500 each and a 3M gift pack.
