Description
SYPT: Swiss Young Physicists' Tournament -
Where tomorrow's scientists meet. Das SYPT ist ein projektorientierter Teamwettbewerb für physikinteressierte MittelschülerInnen aus der ganzen Schweiz. Die Teilnehmenden arbeiten über mehrere Monate an einem von insgesamt 17 anspruchsvollen Physikproblemen. Am jährlichen Turnier treten Teams in sogenannten „Physics Fights“ gegeneinander an und versuchen, eine fachkundige Jury von der Qualität der eigenen Forschungsergebnisse zu überzeugen. Die besten fünf SchülerInnen vertreten die Schweiz am internationalen Turnier und können sich so mit Teilnehmern aus der ganzen Welt messen.
Durch die Erfahrungen am SYPT lernen die SchülerInnen, selbständig wissenschaftlich zu arbeiten, und tauchen so bereits früh in die Welt der Forschung und Entwicklung ein. Dadurch leistet das SYPT einen wichtigen Beitrag zur Talentförderung und zur Begeisterung junger Menschen für Technik und Wissenschaft.
Die besten fünf SchülerInnen haben die Möglichkeit, die Schweiz am "International Young Physicists' Tournament" (IYPT) zu vertreten und messen sich dort mit Gleichgesinnten aus aller Welt (http://iypt.org/Home).

The SYPT is a national physics competition for high school students. Every year 17 open ended physics problems are released by an international committee, encouraging students to engage in scientific research. Over the course of the last years the SYPT has established itself as an attractive opportunity for talented students interested in natural sciences from across Switzerland.
Participants may choose one of the 17 problems and are expected to discuss both theoretical and experimental aspects. Unlike most other scientific competitions the Swiss Young Physicists’ Tournament is a team event. The students form groups of three and compete against each other in so called “physics fights”.
The five best students have the opportunity to represent Switzerland at the "International Young Physicists' Tournament" (IYPT). There they compete with students from all around the world (http://iypt.org/Home).
