What makes A Research Experience work?

  • Designed by an Ivy League professor

    This program was created by a professor who has spent more than a decade refining an approach that works for every student, no matter your background or your interests.

  • A modular approach

    Turn your project into a series of manageable tasks, and then bring them all together into the final product.

  • All the resources you need

    Take advantage of the range of resources we've gathered to make the research project work, including ready-to-use datasets, guides to carrying out a survey, and templates for every step.

Why Apply for A Research Experience?

This is unlike any other program designed to help high school students carry out their own research projects.

  • A Research Experience is designed to guide students through every single step of the research process, turning a challenging endeavor into a set of clear, manageable steps.

  • Make progress on the course on your own schedule, day or night, instead of trying to sync schedules with staff from a company.

  • Take advantage of the datasets that are ready to use, links to resources on the web, handouts with templates for each task, and a complete template for your final product.
