AJAS – an AL competition for scholarships and to qualify for the Junior Science and Humanities Symposium.  The  JSHS  is sponsored by the tri-services and the DoD.  They also offer educational outreach programs like summer internships and research experience opportunities (see below).

Local registration is based on the AMSTI zones below.  Locals are informal, require a recording of your presentation and a zoom meeting.  This occurs in late January and early February.  From these, we select the top 60 students in Alabama to participate in state competition.
