About Science Olympiad NG

Science Olympiad Nigeria is a national non-profit initiative dedicated to improving the quality of primary and secondary schools’ science education, increasing male, female (pupils/students) interest in science, creating a technologically-literate workforce and providing recognition for outstanding achievement by both students and teachers.

These goals are achieved by participating in Science Olympiad tournaments and non-competitive events, incorporating Science Olympiad into classroom curriculum and attending teacher training programs.

OUR TESTIMONIALS

You’ll find something to spark your curiosity and enhance

Ever since Science Olympiad was founded, weve been inspiring women to shatter the glass ceiling of STEM, and to overturn those negative statistics.”

Dr. Gerard Putz
Science Olympiad President and Co-Founder

I have been a staunch supporter of the Science Olympiad program. I rely on the Olympiad to achieve a successful goal. I consider it a major tool for accomplishing a successful science fair project locally, regionally and nationally".

Dr. Abiodun Sogbesan
Femicron Associates, Washington DC, USA.

Elementary Science Olympiad (ESO) helped us to make new friends outside the school, sharpened our thinking in science and technology, and opportunity to have a feel of university experience and campus life. The experiments carried out in the competition greatly improved the way we analyse, observe and report inference/conclusion.
