  • 1 Science Olympiad Alumni Where Are They Now? Stories of Scientific
    Science Olympiad Alumni Where Are They Now? Stories of Scientific Achievement and Inspiration To celebrate the 20th anniversary of national competition in 2004, Science Olympiad began an effort to track down its most illustrious alumni. We were specifically interested to discover if Science Olympiad had an impact on the choice of a career in science or technology. Of the hundreds of respondents, more than 80% answered with a resounding “Yes!” Kathleen Markiewicz Teacher, Boston Public Schools Competed from 1998 to 2000 “It solidified my love for science. I enjoyed getting to learn about many areas of science in Science Olympiad, and I continue to be interested in lots of science disciplines. In particular, Science Olympiad showed me that I love chemistry and physics, which ultimately were my majors for my undergraduate degree. I am also coaching my own Science Olympiad team at the Boston Latin School, and it’s a great way to come full circle. My fiancé, who I met while on the Grand Haven High School Science Olympiad team, is also helping me coach.” Rich Radke Assistant Professor, Department of Electrical, Computer and Systems Engineering Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute Competed in the early 1990s “I believe that Science Olympiad was very helpful in showing me that science could be interesting and fun, and that there were organizations that rewarded people for achievement in science and math,” said an 18-year-old Radke in 1993. Today, Radke is a celebrated researcher and the winner of the National Science Foundation’s Early Career Development Award for his work with networked cameras.

    SCIENCEOLYMPIAD America’s Most Exciting Team Science Competition A researcher in the jungles of Panama studies a golden frog and remembers her favorite middle school Science Olympiad event, Amphibians and Reptiles. A high school science teacher prepares his lessons and recalls the singular influence that led him to major in Cellular and Molecular Biology at the University of Michigan and to pursue teaching, the Science Olympiad Designer Genes event. A geotechnical engineer who attended both MIT and UC Berkeley marvels at how learning to classify more than 200 rocks, minerals and fossils when she was 13 years old led her to a career sparked by Science Olympiad. Science Olympiad was the most thought-provoking, educational and fun experience I ever had.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Bob Kopach, Media Relations, 312-852-0132, [email protected] TOP U.S. STUDENTS COMPETE IN THE 2018 SCIENCE OLYMPIAD NATIONAL TOURNAMENT AT COLORADO STATE UNIVERSITY FT. COLLINS, CO — Talented teens from across the nation will gather at Colorado State University May 18- 19 to battle it out in intensely competitive science and engineering projects. More than 5,000 students, parents and educators from all 50 states and the District of Columbia will descend on Fort Collins for the 34th annual Science Olympiad National Tournament, hosted this year by CSU. Among the visiting schools will be a Global Ambassador Team from Japan. The public is welcome to attend many of the competition events, taking place in the Lory Student Center and across campus. The opening and closing ceremonies will be held in Moby Arena. Read a full schedule here. “Colorado State University is delighted and honored to host some of the nation’s most talented young scientists and engineers at this year’s Science Olympiad National Tournament,” said Rick Miranda, CSU provost. “We welcome each and every one of these inspiring young people to our campus, and we hope they will be proud of their achievements – as they already should be. Best of luck to all of these amazing students!” The approximately 2,000 students from 120 middle and high schools were their states’ top performers at competitions held this year.
