BT Young Scientist & Technology Exhibition 2025

The  BT Young Scientist & Technology Exhibition (BTYSTE) is more than just a competition, it’s a chance for young minds to shine and for big ideas to take centre stage. As always, the RSA is thrilled to be part of this event, celebrating student innovation with an award for the best road safety-related project.

More than 4,000 students from 352 schools across Ireland have brought their creativity and problem-solving skills to the BT Young Scientist & Technology Exhibition (BTYSTE) in 2025, submitting an impressive 2,069 project entries.

Covering a wide range of topics in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM), 550 shortlisted projects will proudly represent their schools and communities at the RDS from 8–11 January 2025.

Year after year, we’re inspired by the fresh and thoughtful ideas students bring to road safety. In 2025, we’re back with an extra incentive: a chance to win one of three gaming consoles. Be sure to visit our Shuttle and Rollover simulator at the exhibition to learn more about road safety and enter the competition.
