Summit Education: 2026 Summer Programs

Summit Education organizes virtual summer programs for high-achieving students interested in STEM fields. In 2026, Summit will run two programs: the Summit STEM Fellowship (SSF) and Summit Research Scholars (SRS).
Summit STEM Fellowship (SSF): SSF empowers the next generation of STEM leaders by helping students explore a wide range of STEM fields and career pathways while building leadership and life skills. The fellowship is a flexible 10–15 hour per week commitment, allowing students to participate alongside other summer activities. The tuition for the 3-week program is $875, which includes 30+ hours of live instruction and access to a network of 50+ mentors from Harvard, Stanford, MIT, and other top institutions. Tuition helps cover the costs of running the program and bringing together exceptional mentors and speakers.
Summit Research Scholars (SRS): SRS equips students with the tools to conduct original research, covering essential research methods and technical skills. At the end of the program, students complete a Research Capstone and practice applying their skills to solve real-world problems. The tuition for the 3-week program is $2,900, which includes 80+ hours of live instruction, discussion section, office hours, and more. Tuition helps cover the costs of running the program and bringing together exceptional instructors and mentors.
