Our Participants Talk About NITARP

  • Curtis

    I gave a presentation on my group's experience with NITARP at a dinner for about 100 members of the Waynflete School community[..]. The crowd was very impressed with the program and the idea of having students not only conduct authentic scientific research, but then also be able to present their findings to the scientific community.

  • Boys

    Thanks for this amazing opportunity and it has been especially rewarding sharing the experience with my daughter!

  • Mehta

    [I have] an example of a student who, previous to the summer trip did not have a focused direction for his future after high school, but now does. [He wants to be a scientist.]
