Asian Physics Olympiad (APhO)

The Asian Physics Olympiad (APhO) is a prestigious annual physics competition for high school students from countries and regions in Asia and Oceania. Modeled after the International Physics Olympiad (IPhO), it features challenging theoretical and experimental exams that test deep conceptual understanding, problem-solving, and practical lab skills in physics.

Participants are typically selected through national physics olympiad programs, with each country sending a team of top high school students (usually up to eight) along with leaders and observers. Competing at APhO helps students develop advanced physics knowledge, experience international academic standards, and connect with like-minded peers from across the region. Success at APhO often strengthens preparation for the International Physics Olympiad and can support future applications to competitive STEM university programs.
