This year’s European Physics Olympiad 2022 was held in Ljubljana, Slovenia with the participation of 182 contestants from 37 countries. The Vietnamese team has 5 contestants. This is the first time after 2 years affected by the COVID-19 epidemic, Vietnamese students are allowed to “go abroad” to participate in an international Olympic competition.

It is known that in this year’s European Physics Olympiad 2022, each country sends 5 students to participate in 2 parts: Theory (5 hours) and Practical (5 hours). In addition to exams, students can also participate in activities to exchange Physics knowledge with friends around the world.

This is the sixth time that the European Physics Olympiad has been held and the fourth year that Vietnam has participated. In the previous 4 times, the Vietnamese delegation always won a medal. Last year, at the European Physics Olympiad 2021 held online, the Vietnamese team won 1 Gold and 1 Bronze medal.
