The XXXIII International M.A. Alekseev Tuymaada School Olympiad in Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, and Computer Science has concluded. This year, the Olympiad was held as part of the III International Science Games from July 2 to July 10, 2026. Participants participated in a mixed format (in-person and remote), with the exception of physics, which was held in person only.
121 schoolchildren from six countries participated in the Olympiad: Indonesia, South Korea, Kazakhstan, Romania, Singapore, and the Russian Federation. Russia was represented by six regions (72 students): Moscow, Sverdlovsk, Novosibirsk, and Penza Oblasts, the Republic of Tatarstan, and the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia). The Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) was represented by 49 students from 12 comprehensive schools.
Participants in the Tuymaada Olympiad include winners and runners-up of renowned international and national Olympiads, including the International Experimental Physics Olympiad (IEPhO), the final round of the All-Russian School Olympiad, the International Zhautykov Olympiad, and others.
The participants’ work was reviewed and evaluated by a 64-member jury, comprised of renowned jurors and methodological committee members from national and international Olympiads, professors, teachers, graduate students, and university students—all winners of previous Tuymaada International School Olympiads.
