The national contest of "Schweizer Jugend forscht" invites 16 to 23 years old students from all around the country to perfom a research work at the end of their high-school or professional school. The work is done under the supervision of experienced scientists in different fields and it is a great opportunity to have a research experience at a very early stage of the students' career.

At the finals in Lugano, the works of Ricarda Klein - "UV light - the enemy of plastic?" in the category physics and technology and of Jonas Kühne "MatVision - development and implementation of an artificial intelligence for image classification of materials in Java" in the category mathematics and computer science, among others, were awarded the rating "outstanding".
