Boston University RISE

The Boston University RISE program is a tremendous opportunity for high school juniors. This residential 6-week program has students spend their time on campus conducting hands on research in their laboratories under the supervision of brilliant scientists.

They also offer an ongoing commuter program for local high school students that starts and ends a day after the residential option. Teens can choose from a selection of different STEM areas to study, which includes subjects like astronomy, computer science, mechanical engineering, neuroscience, physics, and much more. The main focus of the program is for participants to conduct a research project in their chosen area while being mentored by university faculty.

RISE is one of the most prestigious STEM summer programs in the U.S and the world. It's an excellent option for curious and intelligent young minds who want a career in the field and want to gain some college experience at Boston University.
