Need more help enrolling?
Schedule a 30 minute consultation.
We will walk you through our program structure and program philosophy to help you choose a track for your student.
We'll answer all your questions including whether our programs are right for your child.
No prior research experience required, however these courses assume deep intellectual curiosity, sustained effort, and a willingness to engage with very challenging material.
Our comprehensive yet flexible research tracks
Our flexible curricula start with foundational courses in programming & machine learning and domain-specific course work, followed by research programs designed to lead to research paper publication and science fair competition project entries.
Start at any age between 5th and 11th grade. Course cohorts will be grouped by age
