Student Research Program 2025
Areteem Institute’s 2025 research program is an 8-month program, in which high school students work on individual or group research projects under the guidance of academic mentors, such as college professors, research scientists in industry, etc. The research topics are from STEM related fields, with emphasis on mathematics and its applications.
This program includes four distinct phases. Rough dates are listed below but may change for each student based on progress.
- Phase 1 – Initial Training
- This phase is from March 1, 2025 to March 31, 2025.
- Students take lessons from mentors on introduction to research.
- Meeting with mentor each week for 90 minutes.
- Assignments are given for student to complete offline, including reading background materials (books and papers) and writing reports.
- The lessons in this phase may be group lessons or private mentoring sessions, usually over Zoom.
- Phase 2 – Active Research
- This phase is from April 1, 2025 to May 31, 2025.
- Students works on selected topics and conduct active research, following the guidance from mentors.
- Meeting with mentor once every two weeks.
- Phase 3 – Independent Study
- This phase is from June 1, 2025 to August 31, 2025.
- Students continue on their research independently.
- Meeting with mentor once every 2 weeks.
- Phase 4 – Write-up Period
- This phase is from September 1, 2025 to October 31, 2025.
- Student writes up the research findings in the form of a research paper, under the guide of the mentor.
- Meeting with mentor 6 times (roughly once every two weeks, or as needed).
At the end of the program, students are expected to have research findings written in papers with publication quality. The Intelligence Planet, the mathematical journal run by Zoom Education Foundation and Resources (a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization), hosted by Areteem Institute, will give priority to reviewing papers produced in this program for publication. (Note that this means the papers from this program have priority to be reviewed. Publication depends on the quality of the paper.) It is also encouraged for students to seek publication of their papers at other reputable journals.
The tuition for this program is $6,500. Students in Areteem Institute’s College Counseling program receive $500 discount.
