What is Science Olympiad?

Who Can Participate?
Science Olympiad offers interscholastic academic competition in biology, earth science, chemistry, physics, problem solving, and technology. The state and national tournaments consist of a series of individual and team events, and there is a balance between events requiring knowledge of scientific facts, concepts, processes, skills, and science applications.

SCSO Growth

This year, the South Carolina Science Olympiad aims to provide opportunities to participate in fun, rigorous STEM challenges to more students than ever. We will host Regional Competitions at Newberry College and The Citadel. Teams are encouraged to select the regional competition that works best for them. ​
All South Carolina students in grades K-12 are invited to participate in a Regional Competition, hosted at either The Citadel or Newberry College. Top scoring teams will move onto the State ​Competition at The Citadel. The winner of each division will move onto the National Competition.
