The Big Bang Competition: Inspire Young People in STEM

Get your students thinking about issues they’re passionate about or developing solutions to challenges they’ve come across in their own lives by doing a project for The Big Bang Competition.

Taking part in the UK’s top STEM competition for young people is a brilliant way to inspire your students to think big and show their passion.

More than just winning prizes!

From team work and getting creative, to analysing and communicating findings, The Big Bang Competition is a brilliant way to develop valuable skills for the future. It’s also a great chance to get feedback from real scientists and engineers and to celebrate and share students’ achievements.

Looking for inspiration?

Projects can be about any topic in the field of STEM – it doesn’t matter if they’ve been done using simple everyday items or through research in a science laboratory, in school or at home – it’s all about the idea and the enthusiasm behind it!

If you've had students who completed a Nuffield Research Placement (NRP) last summer then they could be able to submit their project report so please do make sure any NRP alumni are aware of this opportunity.
