About Us

The mission of Maryland Science Olympiad at JHU (MSO@JHU) is to ensure that students engage in fun and challenging science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) competitions that build team skills and highlight the value that diversity brings to a team.

Science Olympiad is a national non-profit organization dedicated to improving the quality of K-12 science education, increasing student interest in science, creating a technologically literate workforce and providing recognition for outstanding achievement by both students and teachers. These goals are achieved by participating in Science Olympiad tournaments, incorporating Science Olympiad into classroom curriculum, and attending professional development workshops.

The Maryland Science Olympiad is a "hands-on" K-12 science program including rigorous academic interscholastic tournaments. Scientists and engineers from Maryland corporations, organizations, and universities collaborate with K-12 science teachers to oversee the 46 teamwork-oriented tournament events.

Our Valued Volunteers

Volunteers will have the ability to write tests on behalf of MSO@JHU which will be used in tournaments. Volunteers will also be able to participate as general volunteers or event supervisors during tournament days, helping run events that will help students to expand their knowledge and competence in STEM fields and increase their insight into the investigative process by enabling them to "do" science through hands-on and inquiry-based exploration.

You will make science and technology fun by ensuring all students have an equal opportunity for high-quality STEM education regardless of their ethnicity, household income, or geographic location!
