About This Activity
[Registration in the TMRI Summer Program is possible only for those who have been officially admitted to the Program and have received an invitation to register via the Active Network. For more information, contact TMRI-info@tmsc.org.] The TMRI Summer Program is a four-week, immersive research experience for advanced high school students who are eager to engage deeply with questions within STEM disciplines. The program’s design reflects experience evaluating student research at national competitions such as the Regeneron Science Talent Search (STS) and International Science & Engineering Fair (ISEF), helping ensure that students encounter the practices and expectations of authentic scientific inquiry. Structured as a research apprenticeship, the program places students in small groups led by collegiate and university Faculty Research Mentors who are actively engaged in research. Students participate in daily journal club, faculty-led lectures, and sustained research work, while also developing individual research directions within a shared theme. Just as importantly, the Summer Program fosters a strong sense of intellectual belonging—bringing together similarly curious, motivated students and STEM professionals in a community where thoughtful inquiry and collaboration are central.
