The Research oriented Scholastic Experience (RoSE) is a virtual research program designed to introduce high-achievers to the world of original research. This Interdisciplinary, Collaborative, and Future-Focused work aims to provide transformational research experiences to these high-achieving students.
RoSE initiative is the outcome of years of academic insight gained through careful observation of student success and perseverance. The purpose of the RoSE program is to equip the students with much-needed skills spanning across multiple disciplines so that they will be successful in their chosen profession.
In addition to scientific research, the RoSE program strives to introduce participants to the climate and culture of scientific temperament, critical thinking, information synthesis, and interpretation.
The theme for the 2025 cycle is Data Analysis: Shaping the Next Generation of Scientists, Engineers, and Entrepreneurs.
At the end of four weeks, the students will be able to:
Analyze, synthesize, and draw interpretation from data analysis using mathematical skills.
Develop models to generalize the observed trends in data.
Gather data available in the public domain.
Develop skills aimed at data plotting, simulation, and visualization.
Gain experience in the formulation and analysis of emerging and contemporary research topics.
Disseminate the results through a poster presentation or technical blog.
Get a head start on higher education.
Enhance their US/UK college/internship applications
The program is open to:
Students who are currently enrolled in Grade 11 or Grade 12.
Students who have recently completed Grade 12 and are waiting to start the undergraduate degree.
The professor teaching in the RoSE program is a distinguished scientist, researcher, and educator from a Carnegie-classified R1 university in the USA. He is currently a tenured full professor at a US university. Throughout his career, he has been acknowledged for his outstanding work and has received numerous awards and honors. His main research interests include data analysis, synthesis, and mathematical modeling of observed phenomena. He is widely known for his dedication to student success both within and outside the university. As a visiting faculty, he has taught at universities across Europe and Asia, including the prestigious Indian Institute of Technology.
The resume, publication list, Google Scholar page and global media coverage links of the professor will be sent to the shortlisted applicants.
The professor will be assisted by a teaching assistant who is in her Junior year at Duke University.
