Lumiere Education Research Scholar Program

Lumiere Education Research Scholar Program provides motivated high school students with the opportunity to engage in authentic research under the guidance of experienced mentors. Participants develop research skills, academic writing, and critical thinking while completing an independent, original research project.

1:1 mentorship with a PhD researcher; an independent original research project; development of research methodology, critical thinking, data analysis, and academic writing skills; completion of a full research paper; opportunity to pursue publication of the research; experience working with a researcher from a leading university; a strong addition to the student’s academic profile and university applications.

Applicants must be current high school students. The program is selective and is aimed at students with strong academic performance, intellectual curiosity, and the ability to work independently and consistently. Previous experience in the chosen field is not required. The selection process includes an online application and, for shortlisted candidates, an interview.
