Science Olympiad at the University of Pennsylvania (SOUP) is a student-run organization at Penn that organizes a Science Olympiad invitational tournament and mentors local middle school teams in Philadelphia with the goal of spurring interest in STEM for students who might otherwise lack the opportunity.
What is Science Olympiad?
Science Olympiad is a non-profit organization that hosts official tournaments on a regional, state, and national level with around 7,800 teams of 15 students across all 50 states. These tournaments consist of 23 events that test students on a range of subjects, including biology, earth and space science, chemistry, and engineering.
Our Purpose
