Our Participants Talk About NITARP

  • Robert

    You and this program (NITARP) have been truly remarkable and has already changed my life forever. I'm just waiting to see what happens next.

  • Sanchez

    I wanted to thank you for such a wonderful experience. I am not sure if I could ever say this enough. It will definitely be a time in my life/career I will not ever forget.

  • Pruett

    The NITARP experience inspires students to participate in research and inspires teachers to find a place in their work (either in a club, the classroom, or new programs) for authentic research. For me, personally, this year of working along with students to learn about black holes has shaped my pedagogical view that real research should be the basis for all science courses.
