Exciting news from the International Research Olympiad (IRO). The International Research Olympiad (IRO) is dedicated to honing analytical and critical thinking skills for student researchers—essential in scientific exploration. The practical applications of knowledge and big-picture thinking are tested, allowing students to walk away with a deeper passion for scientific inquiry and engineering.
Ameya Shirguppe, a student from Round Rock High School, has made the school proud by securing a finalist position at the IRO Finals held at Harvard University.
From May 31 to June 2, fifteen exceptional finalists competed in Cambridge, MA, after successfully navigating several rounds of rigorous examinations. Ameya’s achievement places them among the top 1% of competitors, reflecting their outstanding analytical and critical thinking skills, which are the cornerstone of the IRO’s mission.
We are incredibly proud of Ameya‘s accomplishment and their dedication to scientific exploration. Their success at the IRO is a testament to the exceptional talent emerging from our community and the bright future ahead for these young innovators and future researchers.
