About

The Research Experience for High School Students (REHS), run through the San Diego Supercomputer Center, pairs Southern California students in grades 10 through 12 with a UCSD mentor for an eight-week, part-time (15-20 hours/week) computational-science research project. The $2,000 program registration fee is offset by full and partial need-based scholarships, and mentors interview applicants before selection. Participants must maintain a 3.0 GPA and complete a final research poster.
