The Center for Excellence in Education (CEE) welcomes 100 top achieving U.S. high school and international scholars to CEE’s forty-first annual Research Science Institute (RSI), sponsored in collaboration with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).
“The Research Science Institute offers top academic math and science students the opportunity to experience graduate-level research and camaraderie with other talented high school STEM scholars,” said Joann P. DiGennaro, CEE President.
RSI is an intensive, six-week program that combines on-campus course work in scientific theory with off-campus work in science and technology research. Students conduct original, innovative research in state-of-the-art university laboratories, hospitals, and corporate research facilities under the mentorship of leading scientists, engineers, and researchers in the students’ respective areas of interest. In their final week, students demonstrate their research work through written academic papers and oral presentations to their peers and a panel of judges.
Professor Ketterle spoke to high school students at the 2024 Research Summer Institute (RSI) of the Center of Excellence in Education (CEE), MIT.
