What are the benefits of attending an Immerse summer programme?

Our programmes are designed to facilitate engaged and motivated students to explore their subject in greater depth, providing them with insight into what it is like to start out in a career in their chosen subject area.

Attending a summer programme provides you with an opportunity to demonstrate critical skills such as public speaking, debate, and critical thinking. In addition, it provides you with an excellent opportunity to discover your specific interests within a field, which can be helpful when trying to articulate why you wish to study a subject in the future.

Our summer team are very well equipped to support you during your time with Immerse, and beyond. Our workshop leaders are experts in their fields, current members of leading universities (including UC Berkeley, Columbia University, University of Toronto, Stanford University, MIT and Harvard University. During the programme, you will have the opportunity for a one-to-one discussion with your career coach which is an excellent opportunity to discuss your subject and aspirations in depth.

All participants receive a certificate of participation upon completing their Immerse programme, which is awarded at the graduation ceremony on the final day. After the programme, Participant Feedback is written by the project lead, evaluating participant progress and making recommendations on how to most effectively advance participants’ understanding and interest in the topics that have been explored.
