The final competition of the Google Science Fair 2015 was held on the 21st of September in Mountain View (California), in the main headquarters of Google Corporation. 20 projects of young scientists from all around the world were presented at this prestigious competition. The finalists represented 10 countries.

Futuristic, complex and even simple projects can be seen on this unique science fair, which are made from everyday and simple items. It includes the method for detecting impurities in the fuel, production of biodiesel and substance for storing hydrogen from waste of chicken feathers and water purifying method using corncob.

Anela Arifi (18) and Ilda Ismaili (17), are students of the International High School (Bosna Sema) in Tuzla and the finalists of the Google Science Fair 2015.

To recall, these two exceptionally talented students from Tuzla won numerous awards on the international competitions.

Their mentor Aydan Meydan won the award “Inspiring Educator Award”, for exceptional work and assistance on the realization of the project. The award is 10,000 USD for school equipment from Google and 5,000 USD worth scientific equipment from Lego Education.
