A selection of our engagements

European Girl's Mathematical Olympiad, Zurich

Science Olympiads are competitions for high school students who are actively interested in the subjects of biology, chemistry, geography, computer science, mathematics, philosophy and physics beyond the school curriculum. After the first preliminary rounds, about 350 students are given the opportunity to deepen their favorite subject in preparatory events. The best participants in the national eliminations travel to the international Science Olympiads, which are held each year in a different country of the world for each discipline. Delegations from up to 100 countries around the world take part, depending on the subject. Young scientists are encouraged to tackle above-average challenges and think in an interdisciplinary way.
