Science Olympiad offers interscholastic academic competition in Physics, Chemistry, Biology, and technology. The Science Olympiad consists of a series of individual and team events, requiring information on scientific facts, Fundamental concepts, Scientific processes, Key skills, and science applications in practical life. Science Olympiad is a competitive exam conducted by a different organization (Individual/Government) on different levels (Zonal, National, International Level) to enhance the scientific reasoning, logical ability, and analytical skill is among the student through a rigorous test.

Every Science Olympiad aims to push a career in science; to challenge the brightest students around the world, and to match the varied teaching systems of each country. Though the competitions are aimed at school students, the standards of the exams are very high. In fact, in many countries, achieving a high ranking in any ISO guarantees access to a university of alternative and a fellowship.
