Opportunity to receive instruction from academics at the University of Oxford and the University of Cambridge!

The Oxbridge Scientific Research Program is a 10-week international academic research program designed to introduce students to university-level academic thinking and research processes.

Throughout the program, students participate in live classes taught directly by academics from Oxford and Cambridge. During the classes, students engage in one-on-one interaction, take part in discussions, and explore academic topics in depth.

In these classes, conducted under the leadership of expert professors in their fields, students

Develop university-level academic thinking skills
Learn how to read academic articles and literature
Apply scientific research methods
Improve critical thinking and discussion skills
An important part of the program consists of an independent research project. Students conduct research on a topic of their choice and refine their work through feedback received from Oxford & Cambridge academics.
At the end of the program, each student prepares an academic research paper based on their selected topic. This work can be added to the student’s academic portfolio and used as a strong reference in university applications, personal statements, or academic profiles.

Throughout this process, students:

Develop their research and analysis skills
Gain academic writing proficiency
Produce an academic work that helps them stand out in university applications.

Who can join the programme?

  • High school students
  • Students interested in related fields

The programme can certainly provide excellent preparation for the IB Extended Essay (EE). It helps students understand the research process, develop research questions, and practice academic writing. If students follow our instructor-led programme and produce strong work, the outcome will be a high-quality paper that can be used as preparation for the IB Extended Essay.

Programs

Published Research Paper Option

Once students have completed the final draft of their papers, they may choose to submit their work to international academic journals indexed by CPCI or EI. We provide guidance and support throughout the submission process for these indexed publications.

The publication fee is £690 per research article, as determined by the journal. Once an article is accepted, it typically becomes searchable on Google and on the journal’s platform approximately seven months after the publication offer is made.
