Welcome! We're the Dartmouth Undergraduate Science Olympiad (DUSO)!
Our mission is to make scientific pursuits fun and fulfilling for all participants, and to foster high school students’ scholarly passions. We aim to encourage STEM literacy, critical thinking, and creation of knowledge through annual invitational tournaments on Dartmouth's campus.
Before the current iteration of Science Olympiad at Dartmouth, a tournament was held at the college during the 2017-18 season. Unfortunately, there would then be a hiatus of several years of no competitions at Dartmouth.
However, Dartmouth's status as the only Ivy League school without an annual invitational tournament is now being rectified. In early 2024, a group of Dartmouth undergraduates came together to form Dartmouth Undergraduate Science Olympiad. In February of 2025, Science Olympiad had a successful return to Dartmouth, hosting the Dartmouth College Invitational Tournament for Division C (high school). It is the first Science Olympiad tournament at Dartmouth to be organized by Dartmouth students. We are committed to making Science Olympiad at Dartmouth a yearly event, and will continue in 2026.
