S415 | Science & Engineering Research(Academic Internship)

Course Description

The Science and Engineering Research course provides students the opportunity to design and/or carry out a long-term experimental or engineering project. Students will have the opportunity to visit labs at Harvard, Draper, MIT, the Broad Institute, the Cambridge Water department and other sites. After visiting, students will select a lab they'd like to work in. Once students have identified a project, they will conduct experiments and/or engineering work, make presentations and produce a final research paper, poster and materials for the Science Fair. Students will be supported in their work by attending class at CRLS at least once a week. The course is offered in Block 4, allowing the student to leave school to do work in a lab. Students are expected to spend 10-20 hours weekly on their research.
