哈佛科学奥林匹克是由哈佛大学本科生奥林匹克协会（Harvard Undergraduate Science Olympiad, HUSO) 主导运营的顶尖学术组织，汇聚了哈佛大学校园内的“最强大脑”，该组织每年在哈佛大学校园内举办面向全美中学生的科学奥林匹克竞赛。

哈佛科学奥林匹克的授权单位——全美科学奥林匹克（Science Olympiad），起源于 1984 年，迄今已有 40 余年的历史沉淀。每年吸引美国 50 个州的 6600 多支队伍、超过 6 万名美国中学生参与，已经成为美国大学广泛认可的一项赛事。

“哈佛科学奥林匹克挑战·中国站”（HUSO China）是一项为期5天的STEM学科类学术活动，由哈佛大学科学奥林匹克协会主办，旨在为国内优秀中学生提供一个展示其STEM学科才华的国际化舞台。

100位国内7-12年级通过严格的线上初选轮测试的优秀中学生将受邀参加8月25日-29日在中国上海的终选轮，在哈佛大学、麻省理工大学等青年导师的带领下进行终选轮测评，展示其在数学、物理、化学、生物、环境科学等STEM学科领域的卓越学术能力。

七位来自哈佛大学、麻省理工学院等顶尖学府的学霸导师齐聚上海。他们大多数是美国奥林匹克国家队成员，经哈佛奥林匹克协会层层筛选后组建成哈佛奥林匹克中国站学术团队。团队成员中，有的是国际奥林匹克竞赛金牌得主，有的是AP 考试全科满分的学霸，有的则荣获获奖率仅约 0.0045% 的美国总统奖。从学术材料撰写、试题命题到课程讲授，均由他们全程负责。怀着对教育事业的热忱，导师们致力于为中国学子打造一场高水准的STEM学术之旅 。

哈佛科学奥林匹克挑战·中国站将对数学、物理、 化学、生物学、环境科学五大学科内容进行测评。

参与形式：个人挑战（学校可组织团队报名并根据个人表现角逐团队奖项）

组别设置：

【初阶组】7-9年级、【高阶组】10-12年级

面向群体：对 STEM 各学科领域感兴趣、渴望在国际舞台上展示数学、物理、化学、生物及环境科学等领域验证实力。对人工智能、合成生物学等前沿科学兴趣浓厚，希望与全球卓越学者同台探讨，积累助力未来本科申请的独特经历的国内 7-12 年级优秀中学生。

HUSO CHINA不仅仅在教室学习，我们还精心设计了游戏学习环节！在这个环节中学生们将三人一组展开一场STEM主题的解密寻宝活动！通过调动你的知识储备与创意能力解密每一道跟STEM相关的问题寻找线索！

这些来自哈佛、MIT等世界顶尖学府的青年导师将分享他们的录取经验、参与的课外活动、校园生活等。为学员提供近距离了解哈佛大学、麻省理工等世界顶尖学府提供绝佳机会。

沿承哈佛学术活动的传统，哈佛奥林匹克狂欢之夜在紧张挑战之余，精心筹备了一系列精彩纷呈的特色活动，助力学员在高强度的赛程间隙结交挚友、增长见识。狂欢之夜将通过营造活力四射的氛围，为多才多艺的学员提供展示自我的舞台，促进青年人之间的交流互动。

在这个环节中学生们将以四人一组的形式进行建筑模型从设计图纸到实物搭建的挑战。各小组还将进行比拼，角逐出最佳设计方案。体验工程建设的复杂，了解建筑从无到有、从蓝图到实体的完整过程，在合作中增强团队凝聚力，培养综合能力。

所有报名参加哈佛科学奥林匹克挑战 · 中国站的选手都将获得由组委会提供的学术资料包，包括各学科评测知识点大纲及模拟测评。

Harvard Undergraduate Science Olympiad(HUSO) is an academic organization in Harvard University. Bringing together the Harvard campus' “The Best of the Best”, HUSO hosts an annual science olympiad on Harvard's campus for middle school students from across the United States.

The Science Olympiad, the authorized unit of the Harvard Science Olympiad, originated in 1984 and has been steeped in history for more than 40 years. Each year, it attracts more than 6,600 teams from all 50 states and more than 60,000 U.S. high school students, and has become an event widely recognized by U.S. universities.

The Harvard Undergraduate Science Olympiad China (HUSO China) is a five - day STEM academic event. Hosted by the Harvard Science Olympiad Association, it aims to offer an international platform for outstanding domestic high school students to showcase their STEM talents. Eligible students in grades 7 - 12 in China who pass the rigorous online test will be invited to the final round in Shanghai, China from August 25th to 29th. Guided by young mentors from Harvard University, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and other top institutions, they will participate in final - round evaluations and demonstrate their remarkable academic capabilities in STEM disciplines such as mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology, and environmental science.

Seven academic mentors from Harvard University, MIT and other top institutions will gather in Shanghai. Most of then are members of the U.S. Olympic National Team, formed into the Harvard Olympic China Academic Team after being screened by the Harvard Olympic Association. Among the team members, some are gold medalists in international Olympiads, some are full-score AP exams, and some have won the U.S. President's Award, which has a winning rate of only about 0.0045%. They are responsible for the entire process, from writing academic materials, to proposing test questions, to teaching the course. With a passion for education, the instructors are committed to creating a high-caliber STEM academic journey for Chinese students.

HUSO China will assess five major subjects: math, physics, chemistry, biology, and environmental science.

Participation:Individual challenges (schools can organize teams to apply and compete for team awards based on individual performance).

Division:

Junior Division: 7th-9th grades;

Senior Division: 10th-12th grades

Suitable for:Outstanding middle and high school students in grades 7-12 in China who are interested in STEM disciplines, cutting-edge sciences such as artificial intelligence and synthetic biology, and who wish to discuss with outstanding scholars from all over the world and accumulate unique experiences.

Science Scavenger Hunt - In teams of three, students will race to solve challenging STEM questions, each serving as a clue to their next location. The journey will test their knowledge, creativity, and problem-solving skills. The first team to complete the hunt will win a special prize from Harvard!

Harvard MIT College Night: Young mentors from Harvard, MIT and other top institutions in the world will share their admissions experience, extracurricular activities they have participated in, campus life and more. The program provides an excellent opportunity for participants to get a closer look at Harvard, MIT, and other top institutions in the world.

Carnival Night: Following the tradition of Harvard's academic events, the Harvard Olympic Carnival Night will feature a series of exciting activities to help participants make friends and gain insights in between the intensity of the competition. By creating an energetic atmosphere, the Carnival Night will provide a stage for multi-talented participants to showcase themselves and promote interaction among young people.

Build Challenge Face Off - Students will engage in a mystery engineering challenge working in teams of 4 to design and construct a structure. Then all teams will compete in an exciting race for who has the best design. This event will expose students to real-world engineering challenges, teach them about the engineering design process, and teamwork.

All participants who sign up for the HUSO China will receive academic information packages provided by the organizing committee, including the syllabus of each subject and mock exam paper.
