Students receive personalized one-on-one mentorship from PhD scholars from top universities like Harvard, Oxford, and MIT, culminating in a college-level research paper and potential publication support.
The Lumiere Research Scholar Program offers high school students a unique opportunity to engage in independent research under the one-on-one guidance of PhD mentors from leading universities. Students work through a structured 12-week program (or longer for advanced tracks) to develop a research question, explore their chosen topic in depth, and produce a college-level research paper. The program emphasizes critical thinking, problem-solving, and academic writing skills. Depending on the chosen track, students may also receive support for submitting their papers to academic journals or presenting at research competitions. This experience aims to strengthen students' academic profiles and provide a deeper understanding of their areas of interest.
A typical day involves independent research, reading academic literature, and working on the research paper, complemented by scheduled one-on-one sessions with a PhD mentor and writing coach.
This program is ideal for high school students with strong academic ability, intellectual curiosity, and a willingness to commit to a structured research process, particularly those aiming to strengthen their college applications through a significant research project.
