THE ACADEMY
The Academic Research and Internship in Science and Engineering (ARISE) Academy is a 16-month institute designed to facilitate the integration of theory and practice through cross-disciplinary research and internship experiences for participating CSTEP scholars. Field placements around the world provide the opportunity for scholars to engage faculty, alumni, and corporate/community partners in collaborative analysis of domestic and global problems. ARISE scholars are charged with formulating their research/internship experiences in science, technology, engineering, and pre-licensure fields into articles. A structured academic orientation complements the internship and/or research experience, allowing some students to be awarded a maximum of six credits upon completion of summer courses at
The ARISE Academy is divided into two phases: The Orientation Phase and the Experiential Phase.
