=> “Student Favorite” Award: Jean-Baptiste Dumas High School in Alès (Gard) for its project—“Engineering for Mobility.”

Congratulations to all the students for their enthusiasm and their excellent presentations of the projects they completed with dedication and commitment. Congratulations to the middle and high school teachers for initiating these projects and guiding the students through this adventure.
Thank you to the members of the jury for evaluating the eight competing projects throughout the day.
We’re following our two winning teams as they head to the national finals at the University of Créteil on June 2, 2023 (Faites de la Science) and at the Paris Air Show in Paris on May 31, 2023 (CGénial).
Proud of our students, proud of our school district!!
These contests are open to students at all middle and high schools in the Montpellier school district.
The goal is to spark their interest in science by engaging them in scientific or technological projects that foster a spirit of discovery and teamwork. To this end, they are guided by their teachers, and the program emphasizes a hands-on approach.
The academic finals will be held at the Faculty of Sciences in Montpellier
