About CRI

Which Program is Right for You?

CRI offers research opportunities for highly motivated students—
from middle schoolers exploring new ideas to college students preparing for graduate school.

For curious middle school students beginning their academic journey. Over 2 months, students build foundational research skills through 1:1 guidance and hands-on project mock-ups with expert mentors.

A 2-week intensive summer program held in Seoul for high school and college students. Work directly with professors from top universities to explore a chosen topic and produce a research paper or presentation.

For students ready to publish original work. Across 8 months, students receive close mentorship to dive deep into a research question, write a full paper, and prepare for submission or presentation.

A personalized research experience built around your goals. From early exploration to full paper development, students work 1-on-1 with expert mentors over flexible timelines and topics.
