Boston University RISE Internship / Practicum

If you鈥檙e passionate about the sciences and are a domestic student currently in your junior year of high school, we invite you to apply for the Research in Science & Engineering (RISE) program. You will spend six weeks at BU conducting university laboratory research with some of the nation鈥檚 brightest scientific minds while advancing your STEM knowledge and skills.

In the Internship, you will tackle research projects under the mentorship of distinguished faculty, postdoctoral fellows, and graduate students.聽 Students will spend 40 hours each week working on research projects designed by your mentor to help you acquire valuable technical and analytical skills while developing insight into the scientific process. You may choose from hands-on research opportunities in areas such as: astronomy, biology, biomedical engineering, chemistry, computer science, electrical and computer engineering, mechanical engineering, medical laboratory research, neuroscience, physics, psychology, and public health. You will present the results of your research at the聽Poster Symposium聽that concludes the program.

If you choose the Practicum route, you can choose to study either聽Computational Neurobiology聽or聽Data Science.聽聽Ideal for students who prefer a structured research environment, you will begin your days with a two-hour lecture from your instructor before continuing in the afternoon with four hours of group research. The experiments are designed to demonstrate procedures that are representative of university laboratory research. You will present the results of your research project alongside RISE Internship students at the Poster Symposium聽that concludes the program.

Admission decisions take into consideration your high school grades, rigor of courses taken, standardized test scores (optional for summer 2026), essays, and one letter of recommendation.
