Bronx Science Research Programs

The primary focus of The Stanley Manne ’52 Research Institute™ is to provide Bronx Science students with the space, equipment and guidance to develop their very own scientific research questions, engage with the process of experimentation and discover scientific results. Within The Stanley Manne ’52 Research Institute™, students will have the opportunity to participate in a variety of research programs to design and conduct their own independent science research projects. Students prepare for the research program through a required course on Research Literacy in their first year at Bronx Science. All 750 first year students will have an opportunity to engage with the Stanley Manne Institute™ during their school day on the different aspects of professional labs. Students will learn how to use cutting edge equipment, conduct introductory experiments and observe complex demonstrations.

Bronx Science hosts several intensive Summer Institutes at The Stanley Manne ’52 Research Institute™ labs for students to pursue their independent projects beyond the school year. The ultimate goal for these budding young scientists is to create a final project and paper they can submit in national competitions. Students will have the opportunity to explore a variety of scientific specialties including Microbiology, Animal Behavior, Genetics and more topics of students’ own interest. Throughout the process, students will be able to collaborate with and learn from mentors and leading scientists.
