 United States Invitational Young Physicists Tournament

The United States Invitational Young Physicists Tournament (USIYPT) is an annual competition that encourages high school students to engage with physics concepts through collaborative problem-solving and written reports. Modeled after similar tournaments in other countries, the USIYPT provides students with the opportunity to explore advanced topics in physics by working in teams to study and present specific physics-related problems or projects. Participants typically form small teams, conduct research and experiments, and prepare presentations on their findings.
