Welcome to
Franklin Research Internship Program
The Franklin Research Internship Program (FRIP) is an intensive, six-week summer program that engages highly motivated, high-achieving high school students in interdisciplinary, university- level research.
Each session (6wk) contains a three-week training period. The purpose is to prepare students to conduct an in-depth, individual research project. In accordance with students' research are as of interest, they will be assigned intensive readings and other types of homework to learn fundamental knowledge and skill sets. Additionally, each student will work with one project products or pieces. Keep it simple and to the point manager and two mentors. One of the mentors will provide training, guidance, and supervision of the learning process. The other mentor will provide academic and technical assistance on specific fields of research.
Upon completion of the three-week training period, students are expected to develop a solid research topic and be capable of conducting their own projects based on their chosen topics. At the end of the entire session (6wk) ends, students will present their work and submit a research paper (non- publishable). For those who want to have their paper professionally edited and proofread, they will have the option to enroll in the "paper publication" service, with additional fee.
