The IYPT is a prestigious global competition that challenges secondary school students to solve complex, open-ended physics problems through year-long research, experimentation, and debate. Often referred to as the “Physics World Cup,” the IYPT emphasizes not just scientific knowledge, but also critical thinking, creativity, and communication. Teams of five students present and defend their research in structured “Physics Fights,” where they take on rotating roles as Presenter, Opponent, and Reviewer.
