Students gain invaluable research experience under the supervision of major names in Sports Medicine and Sports Research, with opportunities for publication and competition.
The Research Institute of Sport & Exercise (RISE) Summer Research Internship offers high school students a challenging 8-12 week program focused on collaborative research projects in sports medicine and sports research. Participants gain hands-on experience working under the supervision of leading experts in the field. The program emphasizes resume-building experiences in the sciences, allowing students to become paid or non-paid student researchers in a student-faculty collaborative team. Interns will profit from invaluable research experience that is attractive to future employers and for university, graduate, and professional school programs. The internship also provides opportunities to qualify for science competitions like the Regeneron Science Talent Search, present research at an informal symposium, and participate in seminars on career development, resume building, introductory statistics, epidemiology, science ethics, and sports medicine/injury prevention. Students may also have shadowing opportunities at collaborative institutions and engage in data collection at major events and infield programs.
A typical day involves working on collaborative research projects, potentially collecting data at events, attending seminars on topics like career development or sports medicine, and engaging in shadowing opportunities at affiliated institutions.
This program is ideal for high school students in grades 9-12 with a genuine interest in sports science, exercise, or human performance, who are motivated to conduct original, university-level research.
