On Monday, March
8, 2010, the UNC Charlotte Departments of Chemistry; Mathematics
and Statistics; Physics and Optical Science; and the Center for Mathematics, Science and Technology Education are cooperatively sponsoring another exciting single day of academic competitions for high school students in Mecklenburg County and surrounding counties.
Coordinator: David Pugalee, Ph.D., UNC Charlotte
We regret that we cannot accept late or onsite registrations. Please do not request to register after the registration deadline of January
28, 2010, or to be allowed to pay after the payment deadline of February
26, 2010. You will be charged $5.00 for each student participating in each contest. (Individual written physics contest fees will cover fees for physics Olympics for those students participating in both physics contests.) You will be sent a payment invoice from our office to return, along with your check for the appropriate amount, to be received by our office by Friday, February
26, 2010. Upon our receiving your payment, we will send you a payment receipt to indicate that you are registered to participate, along with parking and other final information.
The competition schedule will permit your students to test their skills individually in mathematics (Comprehensive or Algebra II) or science or both. The schedule for the testing periods is such that students may not compete in both the chemistry and physics contests, nor is it possible for students to participate in both the physics Olympics event and either of the mathematics contests. Both mathematics contests will be held simultaneously, so students must choose between the Comprehensive and the Algebra II contests.
Note: No calculators will be allowed for either math test
at UNC Charlotte, as is also the case for the state-level
comprehensive math contest. (Algebra state-level finals may vary
by site regarding calculators.) Awards for participants will include trophies and books.
