The Science Math Resource Center is pleased to partner with a number of MSU colleges, departments, student clubs, and centers to sponsor the Science Olympiad state tournament.  Partners beyond Montana State University also contribute.

In addition to our fiscal sponsors, contributions come from volunteer hours, in-kind donations, and experiential STEM opportunities from MSU affiliates, non-profit organizations, and private sector companies.  

We appreciate you and we couldn't do it without you! 

Is your organization interested in supporting the Montana Science Olympiad?  Contact us to learn ways to  contribute and help nearly 1,000 Montana middle and high school students participate in the premier STEM competition in Montana.

A special thank you to the Museum of the Rockies for hosting the STEM Fun Night on the evening before the tournament - an annual tradition! 

MoR opens its doors to Montana middle and high students and their coaches and chaperones to offer complimentary admission, planetarium shows, and exhibits by community STEM partners. 

Many students travel long distances from across Montana to compete in the Science Olympiad and they may be visiting the Museum of the Rockies for the first time!
