Rebel Research Scholars

The Rebel Research Scholars program is designed for high school students who are interested in pursuing a career in science, technology, engineering or mathematics (STEM). This program offers hands-on, faculty-led research experiences in a university laboratory setting. Students will spend about seven hours each day conducting research and use cutting-edge technologies to explore the sciences under the guidance and mentorship of experienced research faculty. When not in the lab, students will also have the opportunity to experience college life on campus with other high school summer programs as part of the Summer College for High School Students (SCHS) program. The programs are highly competitive and students must meet minimum admission requirements for credit or non-credit research experiences. The summer program is divided into two sessions, each lasting around one month, and limited financial aid is available.

The internship program offered by Rebel Research Scholars is held during the summer and consists of either one month or two month sessions, depending on the program chosen. Participants are expected to spend approximately seven hours each day conducting research in a university laboratory setting.
