Letter from the Directors

Dear Science Olympiad Teams, Coaches, and Parents

We are the Science Olympiad Alumni Association here at Rice University. As an organization, our members include students who are interested in the field of STEM and STEM outreach and students who have participated in Science Olympiad in high school, middle school, and/or elementary school. We are enthusiastic about Science Olympiad and would like to give back to this community that has changed our lives and made us who we are today.

This year, we are very excited to host a Division B and C Science Olympiad Regional Tournament, held on February 3, 2024. The Rice University Regional Tournament will provide today’s high school Science Olympiad teams with an opportunity to compete with nationally ranked teams. In addition, students will meet distinguished professors and current students associated with Rice University who have taken time out of their busy schedules to interact with our next generation scientists. We would like to humbly invite all middle school and high school teams to compete at this tournament. Please visit the registration page of our website for information about the day of competition and feel free to ask us any questions at ricesoaa@gmail.com. 

Rice University is one of the leading universities in the United States, and we are pleased and excited to be able to bring something as near and dear to our hearts as Science Olympiad to this campus. We are thrilled to make this regional tournament fun and memorable and look forward to meeting you!

Thank You,

Rice SOAA Directors
