Background

Young Scientists Competition (YSC) is a competition for young researches aged 13-19 years in presenting the results of their research. This is an annual activity from the collaboration between Pudak Scientific and Center for Young Scientists (CYS) which was first held in 2013.

This event was held as a form of Pudak Scientific’s concern for Indonesian education which is in line with the mission of the Center for Young Scientists in promoting research at the elementary and secondary school level, and improving the teacher’s ability in mentoring and building an atmosphere of research with the values of honesty, equality, and creativity.

Through the Young Scientists Competition (YSC) 2021, young researches have the opportunity to present their work, enrich their insight, improve communication skills, establish new friendship and have the opportunity to compete at the world level, because the winner of YSC 2021 will be included in the National Youth Research Competition (Lomba Peneliti Belia, LPB) in November 2021. The winner of the National LPB 2021 is the selection of the Indonesian Team for an international research competition named ICYS 2021 (International Conference of Young Scientist) and APCYS 2021 (Asia Pacific Conference of Young Scientist), ICYSS 2021 (International Conference for Young Social Scientist), and other competitions in Malaysia, South Korea, Thailand, Abu-Dhabi, Tunisia, Netherland, and United States.
