Summer Research Program 2022 (VIRTUAL)

The ArtStem summer research program is a 7 week program for incoming high school freshman to rising seniors. With meetings once a week, it is a independent, however peer-supported method to conduct research of your interest. The participants will explore different types of research, the research process, and understand the elements of website building on Wix using graphic design. The research can be done on any topic/subject according to the researcher's area of interest and while each participant will have their own project, the process will be collaborative allowing for oppourtunities to make new connections and network. Toward the end of the program they will even get a chance to contact professors and science journals to possibily get their research published. This is a great oppourtunity for students who are interested in STEM and research or for those who want to explore something new. 

The participants will be using classtime to listen to lectures, ask questions, get feedback from their peers. This means most work will be done independently during the week allowing for more flexibiltiy. We expect our participants to be responsible and productive during class and complete given tasks on time. 

The program creates an atmosphere for autonomy and self-learning, encouraging self-growth and an expansion of knowledge.

This program will not provide physical equipment for specific research. In the case where more complex equipment is needed the participant must obtain it through their sources.
