Independent Project & Research Programs
The traditional model of passively learning facts and reciting them out of context can no longer
prepare students for today's world. During 7EDU's independent project-based and research based
programs, under the guidance of our world-class project mentors, students have the opportunities
to solve highly complex real-life problems while building up fundamental skills (reading,
writing and math) and problem solving skills such as research gathering, information
synthesizing, data analysis, utilizing technologies, and time management.
Summer 2026 Research Project
Computational Biology Research Project (G9-G11)
June 10 - August 13, 2026
Wed and Thur, 4PM-6PM.
Online Only
This 10-week research project offers students hands-on research in computational biology and AI, leading to a
publishable-style paper and interactive demo—ideal for those passionate about biology,
computer science, and real-world data science applications.
AI Research Project (G9-G11)
July 6 - September 9 2026
Monday & Wednesday, 4:00-6:00 PM PST
Online Only
This selective summer research program gives motivated high school students the opportunity to learn cutting-edge Artificial Intelligence while conducting real research under the mentorship of a leading AI researcher. Through a combination of advanced AI learning, hands-on experimentation, and academic research training, students develop the skills used by modern AI scientists and engineers.
MarsB Research Project (G6-G11)
1 year program (extendable)
Start anytime
Online or Onsite
This project explores innovative approaches to terraforming Mars. Using advanced system models, the team investigates the feasibility of generating an artificial magnetopause to deflect solar wind and protect a future Martian atmosphere—a critical step in making Mars habitable, and a topic of tremendous scientific and public interest.
Environmental Science Research Project (G8-G11)
Start anytime
Online Only
Throughout this 16-week research program, students will develop an original research investigation into how socioeconomic factors and policy choices influence recycling outcomes in U.S. cities, contributing to a deeper understanding of community sustainability practices.
Individual Business Project
Through the research project, students will conduct an in-depth investigation of an area of business, and get a better understanding of what the business arena is all about, how a business operates and which business functions are needed in any business enterprise within the global economic framework.
Individual Engineering Project
As a cornerstone of STEAM education, Engineering serves to solve real-life problems through applying science and mathematics. The goal here is to expose students to the engineering design process, the multidisciplinary nature of engineering, problem-solving, data analysis, team building, professional ethics, sustainability, and project management.
Art and Design Project
These dynamic and hand-on projects offer students the opportunity to explore their creative potential through fine art, graphic design, fashion, illustration, game design, animation, jewelry, architectural, and product design. With guidance from experienced instructors, students will develop their technical skills and artistic expression while creating projects that can be included in their art portfolios for college applications or submitted to art competitions.
