The Concept of international competition activities of the National Center “Junior academy of sciences of Ukraine” is presented. It is aimed at developing a system of selection, evaluation and training of Ukrainian students for their successful participation in international science fairs and other science and engineering competitions. In developing the Concept presented here (which can be considered a draft open for discussion and possible amendments), the authors used the international standards and their own experience in their participation in and organization of participation of Ukrainian students in national and international science fairs and other science and engineering competitions.
