NIS Challenge
An annual intellectual competition between NIS students and alumni.
Who this initiative helps
NIS Challenge is an annual intellectual competition by Alumni NIS that brings together students and graduates of Nazarbayev Intellectual Schools.
The project provides a space for intellectual competition, communication, and interaction between different generations of the NIS community. Participants form teams and compete across several rounds that test general knowledge, logic, creative thinking, and teamwork.
A distinctive feature of NIS Challenge is the participation of students and alumni together. For students, it is an opportunity to test their knowledge and meet graduates in an informal setting. For alumni, it is a chance to return to their school, spend time with current students, and remain involved in the NIS community.
The competition was first held in 2022 and has been conducted across NIS schools nationwide since 2023. In 2023, around 1,200 students from 22 schools took part in the competition.
