Central Asian University announces the launch of the International Olympiad 2026 - an open academic competition for students in grades 9-11, to be held directly on the university campus. The event will serve not only as a test of knowledge but also as a real gateway into the CAU academic environment: top participants will receive scholarships covering up to 100% of tuition fees for the full duration of their studies.
The Olympiad covers three disciplines: physics, mathematics, and chemistry. Participants will solve advanced olympiad-level problems in a live competitive academic setting. Organizers emphasize that the format is intentionally designed to replicate a real university experience - with its full academic atmosphere and intellectual challenge.
“This is not just a competition — it is a real opportunity to earn your place at CAU through knowledge.”
