The Full List of Programs I try to update this list every few days with more programs until I have everything here. International, virtual, US, all types of programs from different disciplines! 1. Research Science Institute (RSI) The Research Science Institute (RSI) has GOT to be one of the coolest/best programs there are. I mean, look at this: It’s clearly a world-renowned program. There are incredibly cool people who have done this program. From Wikipedia: RSI is run by CEE president Joann P. DiGennaro and Executive Vice President Maite P. Ballestero. 100 students from several countries (generally, two-thirds of the students are from the United States and one-third from other countries) are selected to participate in the six-week summer program.[1] More than 1,700 applications are received each year, making RSI one of the most selective summer programs in the United States.[2] The first week of RSI is composed of tutorials and seminars on contemporary research of interest by esteemed Professors from top universities, many of whom are alumni. The next four weeks are centered on individual research projects through mentors in the Boston area, the majority being at labs at MIT, Harvard and other local universities. The last week is devoted to paper and presentation writing, following by the RSI Final Symposium, and encore presentations, which features the top 10 presentations decided by academic staff at RSI. After that, the top 5 presentations are determined by a panel of industry leaders in research and STEM. The RSI Distinguished Lecture Series, which continues throughout the program, brings distinguished professors, scientists, and industry leaders in STEM, including a number of Nobel laureates, many of whom are RSI alumni, to speak to RSI students in evening

In recent years[when?] , the RSI Distinguished Lecture Series has included Nobel Prize-winning physicist Wolfgang Ketterle, Nobel Prize-winning chemist Dudley Herschbach, Nobel Prize-winning geneticist Phillip Sharp, evolutionary biologist Pardis Sabeti, mathematician and chess master Noam Elkies, Akamai Technologies co-founder and CEO Tom Leighton, and mathematician Michael Sipser. RSI's staff is generally composed primarily, if not entirely, of alumni, with recent Rickoids (RSI alumni, from the Institute's original name) filling in as counselors and TAs and older alumni taking administrative, lecturing, or tutoring positions. OKAY! So, how do you apply / get in?! Application: https://www.cee.org/programs/research-science-institute It varies, but I think you usually apply by around December. Cost: free + MIT gives you dorms and food! Program Dates: 6 weeks from around June 26 to August 6 I have made a video breaking down my full application for the Research Science Institute. It’s super helpful as I literally tell you what my activities were and what I said for each of the essays. It will also help you for ANY of the programs that are listed below. So, go watch it: How I Got Into RSI (Research Science Institute) - The Application Process I also give more tips for getting into RSI and other programs in my full course. (I even give some snippets from my actual RSI application) My full RSI application can be found in my paid course here: link. My experience with RSI was positive. It is very intensive. You do a lot of research. You work with world-class institutes and professors. This program may or may not change your life. This was one of the few programs I’ve applied to.

I’ve had a few friends who have attended this. So, what exactly is SSP? Well, it's a program designed for high school students who are passionate about science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM). The program is intense, challenging, and hands-on, and takes place over the course of six weeks during the summer. One of the coolest things about SSP is that it's not just your typical classroom-style learning experience. Instead, you get to work on real research projects alongside other passionate students, using state-of-the-art equipment and techniques. You'll be learning from some of the brightest minds in the STEM field, including PhDs, postdocs, and other experts. And don't worry, it's not all work and no play! You'll have plenty of opportunities to socialize and have fun with your fellow students outside of the lab. Plus, the program takes place on some of the most beautiful college campuses in the country, so you'll have plenty of chances to explore and enjoy the scenery. But don't just take my word for it - SSP has a proven track record of success. Many alumni of the program have gone on to attend some of the most prestigious universities in the world and pursue successful careers in STEM fields. COST: $8400 (oof) It’s because you’re working in teams of three, so you’re not actually doing publishable research that is valuable to the university. Also, RSI has way more donors and is sponsored by MIT... so it has way more funding to subsidize the cost. OVERVIEW: The Summer Science Program offers teens an exhilarating and inspiring immersion into hands-on experimental science. Working in teams of three, 36 participants and 7 faculty form a supportive “living and learning community” over 39 days. Each team completes a real research project, taking and analyzing original data. Afterward, they join a worldwide network of 2,500+ alumni of all ages. In 2023 we will operate six programs: ELIGIBILITY: SSP is open to current high school juniors (and a few truly exceptional sophomores) who have completed the pre-requisites by summer, and will be at least 15 years old, but not yet 19, during the program.
