Year 1: AP Seminar |
Year 2: AP Research |
AP Seminar is a year-long preparatory course, serving as the prerequisite to AP Research.* The content of the course is flexible, often taking a multidisciplinary, cross-curricular approach, designed to showcase for students the overlapping and interdependent nature of their educations, while introducing skills for analysis, interpretation and evaluation of information and preliminary research practices.
Open to Sophomores and Juniors (by application) |
AP Research is a year-long culminating study based on individual student inquiry in a specific cross-curricular area of interest through personal, peer, advisor, and expert mentorship. Students may choose their own topics, synthesizing areas of study from a variety of their own coursework, conduct research, studies, surveys, interviews, etc. in order to contribute in some way to the academic discourse surrounding their area of inquiry.
Open to Juniors and Seniors who have completed AP Seminar |
