Our Pillars 

SOAS is dedicated to following these pillars in order to better the Science Olympiad community: 

  1. Inspiration: We aim to inspire young minds to explore the wonders of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) through engaging and hands -on experiences. By sharing our stories and achievements, we hope to ignite curiosity and passion for these fields. 
  2. Mentorship: We are dedicated to providing mentorship and guidance to Science Olympiad participants. Our alumni serve as role models, offering advice, encouragement, and support as students navigate their educational and career journeys. 
  3. Education: We believe in the power of education. Through workshops, seminars, and educational initiatives, we strive to enhance the knowledge and skills of students, helping them excel in Science Olympiad competitions and beyond. 
  4. Community: We aim to create a strong and inclusive community where alumni can connect, collaborate, and network. We provide opportunities for alumni to stay connected with each other and with current Science Olympiad teams. 
  5. Impact: Ultimately, our goal is to make a positive impact on the world through STEM. We encourage alumni to leverage their knowledge and expertise to address pressing global challenges, contribute to scientific advancements, and promote the value of STEM education. 

By upholding these principles, we endeavor to uphold the legacy of Science Olympiad, empowering young minds to become the innovators, problem solvers, and leaders of tomorrow, and to contribute to the advancement of science and technology for the betterment of society.
