美国中文网报道 据英特尔科学奖官方网站消息。英特尔科学奖20日公布入围决赛名单。在这份40人的决赛名单里，共有11名华裔学生入围。

　　占入围人数近三成的华裔学生分别来自加州，康州，马里兰州，宾州，纽约州和密苏里州。其中加州和纽约州分别有三名华裔学生入围，马里兰州有两位。

　　英特尔科学奖（Intel Science Talent Search）是美国一个科学奖项，原本称为西屋科学奖（Westinghouse Science Talent Search），颁发给优秀的高中学生。英特尔科学奖是西屋公司于1942年所创设，1998年改称为英特尔科学奖。美国总统乔治 赫伯特 沃克 布什曾说英特尔科学奖“是科学界的超级碗”。许多著名的科学家都曾获得该奖，包含罗德 霍夫曼、戴维 芒福德、谢尔登 格拉肖、沃特 吉尔伯特等人。
