2007 Physics Olympiad

General Information

Thanks for your interest in our Physics Olympiad. The Olympiad is an annual event organized and conducted by the Department of Physics,  a part of the College of Literature, Science and Arts, at The University of Michigan - Ann Arbor campus.  The charming city of Ann Arbor is located about 40 miles west of Detroit, and it is regarded as a cultural center of the mid-western region of the USA.

There is NO FEE for registration and participation in the Olympiad.

Why is our department conducting a Physics Olympiad?...

• To help high-school physics teachers with their work by providing a healthy and fun academic competition for high-school students. 
• To strengthen the ties that our faculty has with teachers throughout the region.
• To encourage our own students to assume responsibility for the teaching of science to others.

This endeavor furthers two key goals of our department: (1) To provide an outstanding education for our students, and (2) To disseminate scientific knowledge to citizens.
