Advanced STEM Research Program (Dual enrollment)

The Advanced STEM Research Program provides a year-long platform to engage in independent research within the fields of biological sciences, physical sciences, behavioral sciences and engineering. Students with a deep interest in scientific discovery will design and implement their own research project throughout this year-long, A.P. equivalent-level course. By engaging in literature research, generating a testable hypothesis, implementing an experiment, and analyzing the results, students will develop the mastery to critically think about the scientific world. Formal presentations of results at the end of the year will further develop the students’ communication and critical thinking skills.

Enrolled students must be self-driven and independent workers with a deep interest in problem-solving. Contact with regional experts may be arranged to support the student with advice and exposure to a higher level of academic engagement.

Advanced STEM Research is a dual enrollment course in partnership with Paul Smith’s College. Successful completion of the course will result in the opportunity to earn 4 (four) college credits.
