The ACS US National Chemistry Olympiad (USNCO) is a prestigious program that challenges and inspires high school students across the United States to showcase their chemistry knowledge and skills. This annual competition serves as a gateway for young scientists to explore their passion for chemistry, develop critical problem-solving abilities, and compete at an international level.
The program consists of three rigorous stages:
Local Competitions: Students participate in regional qualifying exams, engaging with peers and demonstrating their chemistry expertise.
National Exam: The top students advance to the national stage, where they tackle challenging theoretical and laboratory-based questions.
International Chemistry Olympiad (IChO): Four of the nation's brightest students are selected to represent the United States on the global stage, competing against the best young chemists from around the world.
With a mission to enhance chemistry education and foster excellence in science, the USNCO has empowered countless students to pursue careers in STEM fields. It also provides a platform to celebrate academic achievement, cultivate leadership skills, and create a network of future innovators.
Join us in celebrating the achievements of these remarkable young minds and discover how the ACS USNCO is shaping the future of chemistry education!
