After two years of virtual exhibitions, the wait is finally over as Ireland’s biggest and brightest showcase for young STEM talent returns to an in-person event in Dublin between 10th-14th January 2023.
Now in its 59th year, the BTYSTE 2023 will throw open its doors to students, from across the island of Ireland, blazing a trail with their creative takes on science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM).
Participating students will be in the running to win over 200 prizes across all four categories and age groups. The overall winners will take away the top prize of €7,500 and go on to represent Ireland at the prestigious European Union Contest for Young Scientists, where Ireland has won 16 first place prizes over 32 years.
Speaking at the launch of the 2023 BTYSTE, BT Ireland Managing Director Shay Walsh said: "The buzz and excitement of the live exhibition is second to none, so we're thrilled to be bringing everyone back together after two successful virtual exhibitions."
Entries must be from second-level students aged between 12 and 19 years. To enter, an individual or group must submit a one-page proposal outlining their project idea.
Entries can be made in any one of four categories:
- Technology
- Social and behavioural science
- Biological and ecological science chemical
- Chemical, physical, and mathematical science
