New York Times 4th Annual STEM Writing Contest

By Brittany MaschalJan 13, 2023

Students choose an issue or question in science, technology, engineering, math, or health and then write an engaging 500-word explanation.

For this contest, The Learning Network invites you to bring that same spirit of inquiry and discovery to finding a STEM-related question, concept or issue you’re interested in, and, in 500 words or fewer, explaining it to a general audience in a way that not only helps us understand, but also engages us and makes us see why it’s important.

Contest Dates: Jan. 18 – Feb. 15, 2023. Learn more here!
