2020 Big Science Competition

The Big Science Competition is open to students in years 7-10 of all abilities from Australian and international schools, including students who are home schooled.

The competition is a 50 minute, multiple choice competition testing critical-thinking and problem-solving skills. Questions are set in real-life, contemporary contexts, making them relatable (and interesting).

There are plenty of opportunities for those who perform well, like invitations to mentoring programs for girls.

Registrations for the online competition close on Friday, 15 May 2020, and you can sit the competition any time between Wednesday, 20 May 2020 and Friday, 5 June 2020.
