  • Encompassing a range of engineering topics our online engineering research internships provide students with the unique opportunity to work jointly with a world-leading engineer. On your internship you will advance the boundaries of knowledge in engineering, and coauthor an original research paper in collaboration with other student colleagues and under the guidance of your expert mentor. 

​

  • Deepen your understanding of engineering while acquiring practical research skills and hands-on experience into what it is like to undertake advanced study in the field. Become a published author when you submit your completed research paper to our open-access academic journal, World Scholars Review, or another scholarly publication.

​

  • World Scholars Academy engineering internship programs are an exceptional opportunity to demonstrate your unique talents, substantiate your commitment to excellence, and individuate yourself from peers so you can stand out when applying to top universities.​​

WORLD ENGINEERING

INTERNSHIPS

Bridge over River at Dusk

World Scholars Academy engineering internships for ages 15-18 analyze the latest advances in engineering including; drone technology, artificial intelligence, frontiers in military weaponry, exotic materials, and nuclear power. On the internship you will work with fellow World Scholars to research and coauthor a topflight academic paper on your topic with the close support of your mentor, a world-leading expert in the field. 

 

During your internship you will learn specialist research techniques, survey the extant literature of the discipline, and conduct original research on your topic. You will contribute your own ideas to the project's successful completion, and will build technical skills and practical know-how to excel as an engineer. Your final paper will be reviewed by your mentor and submitted to either our open-access academic journal, World Scholars Review, or another scholarly engineering publication.

 

Internships take place on either Saturday or Sunday over four weeks, allowing you to participate in an internship during your normal school year or simultaneously with a World Scholars Academy academic summer course. Interns should expect to spend several additional hours outside of their live contact time each week to complete their research project. World Scholars Academy engineering internships include:

​​

  • Maximum class size six (6) students

  • Individualized feedback and academic guidance

  • Certificate of Completion

  • Co-authored research paper submitted for publication

  • Entry into the WSR Best Review Award competition

Internship Details
 

Are you curious about how “big data” is transforming the field of medicine? Dive into the world of big data in biomedical research, where you'll discover how new technologies are helping us better understand health and disease. You will learn how these large datasets are created and investigate how they are being used to drive groundbreaking discoveries in health care. Through real-world examples, you will explore how advancements in technologies such as:
 

  • DNA sequencing

  • RNA sequencing

  • CRISPR screening

  • Metabolomics

  • Proteomics

  • Microbiome profiling


Recent breakthroughs in these fields are revolutionizing our understanding of disease and health, and leading to more personalized medical treatments. You will discover the advantages of using big data, such as uncovering hidden patterns and speeding up drug development, while considering challenges such as maintaining data privacy and the need for sophisticated analytical techniques.

During this month-long internship, you will collaborate with your fellow interns to critically evaluate the role of big data in advancing medical science. Guided by your mentor, you will co-author a scholarly research paper on this topic for publication. This research internship is designed for anyone interested in the intersection between data science and biomedical research. No prior experience in data science or medicine is required.
