One Week Left for BT Young Scientist Entries 2025

Students are urged to submit their applications for the 2025 BT Young Scientist & Technology Exhibition, with only one week left to go before the deadline of 5pm, September 27th.

The 2025 exhibition will take place from January 8th to the 11th, and will showcase a range of student projects from all five categories.

The categories for the exhibition are Technology, Social and Behavioural Sciences, Biological and Ecological Sciences, Chemical, Physical, Mathematical Sciences, and Health and Wellbeing, giving every student an opportunity to explore their own interests.

With a total prize fun of €50,000, the stakes are high for competing students. The overall winner of the BT Young Scientist & Technology Exhibition (BTYSTE) will receive €7,500, and a coveted spot at the European Union Contest for Young Scientists in 2025 in Riga, Latvia.

Commenting on the 2025 Exhibition, co-founder of the BTYSTE Dr Tony Scott, said: 'The BT Young Scientist & Technology Exhibition has nurtured an extraordinary level of STEM talent over the last six decades. Alumni of the exhibition have gone on to have a major impact on the world around them, including business, academia and research and development.

'Most importantly, the exhibition has provided students the means to develop a lifelong interest in STEM, taking this into third level education and later in life. Each year, the BTYSTE proves to be an exciting week for all involved, and we encourage students to apply before the September 27th deadline.'

The BTYSTE is designed to encourage schools' and students' engagement with the vital STEM subjects of science, technology, engineering and maths, and enables students aged 12 to 19-years-old across the country to showcase their innovative science and technology projects on a national stage.
