They will receive guidance from an experienced mentor to complete a research paper or a literature-based research project. While the program is conducted online, you will work closely with your mentor throughout the process from start to finish to develop a publishable research paper.
You and your research mentor will decide the best times for you to meet. They will develop a flexible schedule tailored to your needs. Most students dedicate approximately 10 hours weekly to their research projects, but this can vary. How often you meet with your mentor depends on your needs and goals.
While the number of hours it takes to complete the program depends on the topic and the scope of the project, most students spend between 150 and 250 hours working on their project.
