F1 Challange @ HCI

The Car Design Challenge, organised by Hwa Chong Institution and supported by the Singapore Tourism Board, seeks to inspire students in creative thinking and the real-life application of STEM knowledge and skills. Participants are tasked with designing a stable, aerodynamically sound car capable of racing at high speeds. The model cars are subjected to wind tunnel tests and a derby race. Additionally, participants must present their design process and concepts to a panel of judges and appeal to the public to support their designs. Our OPSS representatives for the competition are:

The team clinched a merit award for the F1 challenge, which earned them an exclusive invitation to the prestigious Formula One Sky Suite.

International Mathematical Modelling Challenge

IM²C (International Mathematical Modelling Challenge) is an international competition on mathematical modelling. The purpose of the IM²C is to promote the teaching of mathematical modelling and applications at all educational levels for all students.

It is based on the firm belief that students and teachers need to experience the power of mathematics to help better understand, analyze and solve real world problems outside of mathematics itself – and to do so in realistic contexts.

Science Olympiad

Olympiad competitions form part of the Science Department's LoS IV programmes. The aim is to nurture exceptional talent, challenge high achievers, and foster scientific curiosity. Students undergo specialised training sessions to prepare them for these competitions. These programmes provide intellectually stimulating content beyond the standard curriculum, enhancing critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Additionally, such initiatives help build students' confidence, promote STEM education, and inspire future careers in scientific fields.
