MATRIX continues our proud sponsorship of Australia’s National Science Quiz.

Coming soon in National Science Week 2024 – from 12 August 2024.

This year’s Quiz is hosted by CSIRO – Australia’s national science agency.

Hosted by ABC’s Nate Byrne, this year’s quiz features top scientists, comedians, and exciting demonstrations. Filmed live at Questacon, Canberra, and broadcast on YouTube from Monday 12 August. Get ready to test your knowledge and have fun with STEM! Play along at anytime at home or a school.

Inspired by the popular De Nationale Wetenschapsquiz in The Netherlands, Australiaʼs National Science Quiz covers all areas of science with approximately 40 thought-provoking questions to test your knowledge and skills.

The ARC Centre of Excellence for Mathematical and Statistical Frontiers (ACEMS) were the driving force behind the first National Science Quiz in 2016. Since then, it has become a flagship event on the Australian scientific calendar and part of the annual National Science Week – attracting thousands of competitors around the country.
