Welcome to IPhO 2018

 

The International Physics Olympiad (IPhO) is an annual competition in physics for secondary school students, aiming at promoting physics and the development of international contacts in physics education. It involves individual theoretical and experimental competitions in physics. The IPhO 1st edition took place in Warsaw, Poland, in 1967, with 5 participating countries. Since then, IPhO has grown to worldwide coverage involving more than 85 countries and 400 competitors. 
   The 49th IPhO will be held in Lisbon, Portugal, from 21 to 29 July 2018. The event is organised by the Portuguese Physical Society, on behalf of the Portuguese Ministry of Education. The IPhO 2018 is supported by the Government of Portugal and by public and private partners.
   The Portuguese Minister of Education, the IPhO 2018 Organising Committee and the city of Lisbon address a warm welcome to all participants in this event.
   See you soon in Lisbon!
