The Senior Research Project and AP Capstone are selective programs that involve an off-campus research project or internship of the student's choice and design. Students select a BASIS faculty member as their adviser and work with a mentor at their research site. These projects may be completed anywhere in the world. At the end of the trimester, students return to campus and present an analysis of their findings to peers, staff, and parents. Below are links to each student's blog.
