| Inspiration for my project came when I "fell down the rabbit hole" of cognitive psychology, so to speak. I find the field very interesting. For any other students thinking about doing a project, I'd say that you should choose a topic that interests you and that hasn't been done before. Lists of science fair projects online never got anyone anywhere. As a career, I know I want to work in a STEM field, but I'm not dead-set on any particular one. As of now, I'm considering becoming an electrical engineer. |
