The aim of these competitions is to develop students' taste for scientific experimentation, by encouraging them to approach questions with the spirit of a researcher, and thus stimulate their initiative. These events have a number of objectives:
=> Introduce young people in junior and senior high schools to the scientific approach, thereby tackling the problem of young people's lack of interest in scientific studies,
=> Develop a spirit of discovery among teenagers, in the spirit of the "La main à la pâte" operation,
=> Participate in universities' mission to disseminate scientific, technological and industrial culture (CSTI),
=> Strengthen links between universities and schools.
