The Australian Science Olympiads have been run for many years, whereby highly motivated students in Australian high schools compete to be selected to be part of the team to represent Australia at the International Science Olympiads. We talk with Aly Weirman, Executive Director of Australian Science Innovations to learn more!

About the Australian Science Olympiads

The Australian Science Olympiad Exams are challenging but rewarding online exams held once a year in the following disciplines:
Junior (for Year 7 – 10)
Physics
Biology
Earth and Environmental Science
Chemistry

All students who wish to be considered for stage two and three of the program must sit the exam. Students may sit more than one exam.

Following the completion of the exams, students may be offered a place in our pathway programs. All programs are invitation-only.

Each of these programs is a chance or students to further extend themselves in their discipline, connect with subject experts, and develop new friendships with like-minded students from across the country.
