Description
Headwaters Science Institute offers a 10-week program called the "Headwaters Research Experience" where high-school students or undergraduate students are able to conduct their own research under the guidance of graduate students and professional scientists. We encourage them to choose a topic of their interest and aid in designing a research project, collecting data, analyzing data, and reporting their findings. This is a learning experience and the results should be viewed from that perspective. Our goal is to inspire students to choose a career path in STEM and understand the scientific process in a new way.
