The Viet Nam Physics Association, in collaboration with VNU University of Science, is hosting the XXV National Student Physics Olympiad 2023 from 30th November to 3rd December 2023. This competition is designed not only to enhance the standards of physics teaching and learning, but also to provide a platform for educators and students to engage with one another and exchange academic insights. This year, 43 delegations, comprising 256 students and 94 teachers from universities and institutes across the country, have come together to participate in this prestigious event.

The team from VNUHCM-University of Science exhibited remarkable talent and dedication, securing first place at the XXV National Student Physics Olympiad 2023. This esteemed occasion not only champions academic excellence but also fosters a spirit of healthy competition among the brightest young physics enthusiasts.

Participants faced a series of challenging theoretical and experimental physics tasks that tested their knowledge and problem-solving abilities. Many students dedicated themselves to late-night study sessions and collaborative group efforts to master complex concepts.

During the awards ceremony on 3rd December, the atmosphere was electric as the VNUHCM-University of Science team received their trophy amidst enthusiastic cheers from peers and faculty, marking a significant achievement. Distinguished members of the Viet Nam Physics Association and esteemed educators underscored the vital importance of innovation in science education.

In addition to the main awards, special accolades for Best Team Spirit and Outstanding Research Projects highlighted the diverse talents showcased throughout the event. The success of the VNUHCM-University of Science team is a testament to the hard work of both students and their mentors, who aspire to inspire others in scientific exploration and to advance physics education in Viet Nam.

As the ceremony concluded, the friendships and camaraderie forged during the Olympiad emerged as a key takeaway. This sense of unity, nurtured by a shared enthusiasm for physics, transcended mere competition. Anticipation for the next National Student Physics Olympiad is already building, promising further opportunities for young physicists to shine and enrich Viet Nam’s vibrant physics community.
