IX International Natural Sciences Tournament

February 1–6, 2019, Tallinn, Estonia

Tallinn was built at the intersection of trade routes and absorbed many cultures. The capital of Estonia can not be called a big one, but even the pickiest travelers will be satisfied. It seems that you can find everything you want here: you can plunge into the Estonian XVIII century, try the famous sweets or get acquainted with modern art. 

Extramural round

Problems of the Extramural round can be found here. Results of the Extramural round published on our website. We congratulate all the participants who are invited to the Grand final (Intramural round) of IX INST! Be careful to work through the Grand final problems, which are published here.
