Maryland Mathematics, Engineering, and Science Achievement (MESA) is a grade 3-12 science, technology, engineering, and mathematics initiative. Maryland MESA seeks to target students who are traditionally underrepresented in these fields—specifically minority and female students. Through participation in Maryland MESA, students develop academic and leadership skills, improve their academic performance, and gain confidence in their ability to compete professionally.

MESA participants are judged in four categories:
Elementary
Mobile App, Wearable Technology, Expanding Structure, and Storybook Theme Park,
Middle and High
Mobile App, Wearable Technology, Expanding Structure, and National Engineering Design Challenge
All 1st place winners will proceed to compete in the State MESA Day Competition that will be held virtually at the John Hopkins Applied Physics Lab on May 7, 2022.
The winners are:
