TERMS OF PARTICIPATION
The official correspondence, organizational language of the Olympiad and the language of the exams is
English.
Students must be registered for the STEM Grand Final by teachers who will accompany them as supervisors.
Participation in the STEM Grand Final does not require any special degree or a minimum score on the STEM Olympiad Online Exams.
Each teacher must register
at least 8 students.
These 8 students will not form any group or team. Each student will compete in the Olympiad individually.
The STEM Grand Final focuses on basic knowledge, training at science centers and simulations on the PhET, LabXchange and CodeCombat platforms. It is an Olympiad for students of all levels, not only for gifted students or participants of specialized Olympiads.
The Grand Final is open to all students in grades
3 through 11.
(There are no age-related criteria.)
Students in grades 3 and 4 may participate in the Grand Final accompanied by one parent.
Students in grades 5 to 11 can participate with their supervisors.
The STEM Grand Final has a quota of
700 students
and
90 teachers.
The quota for students in grades 3 and 4 is 50 students, each accompanied by one parent, with a maximum of 50 accompanying parents.
Students who take the online exams will have priority for admission to the STEM Grand Final.
This total quota will be distributed among countries based on the number of registered countries. The maximum number of participants accepted from each country is 40 students and 5 teachers. Groups on the waiting list will be invited if there is still availability in the general quota. The list of invitees will be announced following the submission of applications.
If a teacher has a group of 4 students from grades 3 and 4, each student must be accompanied by one parent, forming a group with the teacher.
Only teachers have the authority to submit applications on behalf of the students.
A teacher must register at least 8 students to participate in the program. Since students in grades 3 and 4 are accompanied by one parent each, both the parent and the child are considered as 2 individuals in an 8-person group.
The Olympiad committee and sponsors will cover teachers' expenses during the STEM Grand Final program, excluding visa, insurance and flight fees.
The Olympiad Committee reserves the right to modify the concept and rules of the event at any time to enhance effectiveness and satisfaction.
