The Washington University Chemistry Tournament (WUCT) is an annual chemistry competition held on Washington University’s campus in St. Louis, MO. The competition invites high school students across the nation to participate in a series of individual and team-based chemistry exams, engage with college students and faculty, and earn recognition at an awards ceremony. WUCT emphasizes real-world applications of science and encourages students to work in teams to solve problems.
Our last tournament in April 2017 had over 250 high school students and teachers across the nation travel to our campus. For our 2018 competition, we will continue our Individual, Team, Topic and Breaking Bonds rounds. Topic rounds include Chemistry of: the Human Body, Environment, and Cooking. Additionally, we will feature an expanded teacher and coach workshop where we discuss active learning strategies used at a university level.
