The Research Program at Bronx Science
Wanted: Mentors
As more schools participate in Intel, the competition for mentors gets tougher.>>> Can your Lab or University Mentor a Bronx Science Student? <<<
Each year about 80 students enter the Bronx Science research program, a
3-year sequence that provides motivated kids with in-depth experience doing research.
After a year spent reading professional papers in their area of interest and learning basic
research techniques, the students select a topic for a long-term project.
We need your help finding great mentors for sophomores now embarking on their research. Physical science and biology students need access to sophisticated labs and dynamite scientists; they commit to working two summers at the mentor's institution. High quality social science and math mentors are also in demand.
