A Must Experience My experience with the Lumiere research program started a bit rough due to some of my other programs. There were exams that I had to take and various tasks to accomplish. The workload I had was a lot, however, thanks to my Lumiere mentor who supervised me throughout the program, arranged a flexible roadmap, and told me to follow it. Since then my experience has gone smoothly and ended up with the research paper that I was looking forward to. I highly recommend this program to students who have a passion for doing research in the area they're interested in.

My incredible research journey as a complete beginner I joined the Lumiere Research Program having zero knowledge about research. As someone living in a developing country, I initially thought it was beyond my reach. However, thanks to the generous financial aid provided, I was given the opportunity to let my curiosity shine. With the support of a kind and excellent mentor, as well as a whole caring staff, Lumiere provided an experience that not only made me feel empowered and smarter, but also equipped me better for the world. Today, I can truly say that Lumiere has had a profound impact on my intellectual and personal growth and I am grateful for that!

A Transformative Experience Lumiere Education Program stands out as the best academic program I've experienced to this day. Despite participating in numerous others, Lumiere's personalized approach, extensive resources, and dedicated support make it unmatched. From helping students navigate research challenges to offering them insider knowledge on university admissions, Lumiere's team is committed to student success. The program regularly hosts webinars on university admissions (with universities such as UChicago, UC Berkeley, UCLA, and Dartmouth College), offering valuable insights to prospective applicants and program mentees. Additionally, workshops, such as LaTeX tutorials, equip students with practical skills for academic success. One of the program's notable features is its extensive range of resources, including the Notion Handbook. This invaluable resource provides students with practical information to enhance and expedite their research process.

The mentor and the writing center are great! The mentor is really helpful with figuring out a research question, designing a good plan for gathering data, and reviewing and editing my paper. Also, she knows where to find relevant papers to study and has helped me find some really interesting and insightful articles. And the writing center helps too. They hold online sessions on how to write a paper. Whenever I send them my paper for advice, they come back with the most helpful feedback right on time. Their suggestions are spot-on, and they always provide explanations to back them up.
