The Northern Territory Young Scientists Awards aims to recognise and celebrate the achievements of young scientists in the Northern Territory. By acknowledging students' achievements, the awards seek to inspire the next generation of scientists to aim towards excellence and innovation and promote a culture of scientific inquiry and curiosity.
The Awards committee expresses its gratitude to Rowe Scientific Pty Ltd, the major sponsor of the competition. Over the past years, they have provided significant financial support to each state and territory's Science Teachers’ Association, showing their commitment to science education. Rowe Scientific's continued support of students of the NT allows competitions like these to be possible.

The Awards committee acknowledges the Science Teachers Association of the Northern Territory (STANT) for kindly sponsoring the Primary division of the Awards. STANT's contribution to the primary students of the Northern Territory is much appreciated and plays a vital role in encouraging scientific curiosity of primary students in the NT.
The Awards Committee extends heartfelt thanks to a new sponsor, who wishes to remain anonymous, for their generous support in three brand-new categories focused on climate change, beginning in 2026. These categories hope to encourage and inspire students to deepen their understanding of how human actions impact Earth’s climate and to explore innovative ideas for reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
STANT would like to recognise the continued support of the Australian Science Teachers Association (ASTA). ASTA recognises students who have excelled in their science education.
