Our Programs
The Emerging India Research Program:
If you are a student who is passionate about the changing landscape of rural India and want to research on these changes, then the EIRP program is a great opportunity for you. The program provides students with the knowledge, skills, and mentorship they need to conduct high-quality research that can make a real impact on rural communities.
The Research Scholars Fellowship:
The Research Scholars Fellowship caters to students whose interests lie outside of rural India. Students in this program have worked on interesting topics like anxiety, optimism, and resilience during the COVID-19 Pandemic, or using game theory to understand international relations.
What sets our program apart from other research programs?
Spotlight local issues.
With offers from 500+ Ivy leagues and 300+ Top-5 UK universities, we know that colleges are looking for diverse voices. To help them stand out, we encourage students to focus their research on local issues.
Develop a unique application strategy with your research.
We aim to distinctively position you in your applications. We may advise you to write a review paper along with original research, present your paper at prestigious competitions like the IRIS National Fair, etc.
Students don't need to be prepared with a topic before signing up with us.
We can help you brainstorm a unique topic if you don't have one in mind!
Self-paced and competitively priced.
We understand that all students cannot produce vast, original research and so we have options for shorter, less expensive programs where students can write shorter papers or review papers.
What do students in these programs have access to:
Training on foundational research skills
Students receive 10+ hours of recording by academics, on the foundations of research. This ensures that when they join their first session, they already have a strong base understanding.
Training on the opportunities and challenges in rural India [for EIRP only]
Students in the EIRP program have access to another 10+ hours of recordings where industry experts break down key areas in rural India (women empowerment, livelihoods, financial inclusion, agri-tech, health-tech, and ed tech).
One-on-one mentorship from subject-matter experts
One-on-one mentorship and research training from subject matter experts such as PhD candidates from elite institutions like Oxford and Stanford. They will guide you through each aspect of your paper, from developing your hypotheses to writing your final analysis.
Brainstorming a unique research topic
We generally encourage our students to focus on local problems. As it helps their work stand out, even in terms of college applications since colleges value diverse voices. Unlike other programs, students don't need to come in with an idea. We will help you develop one.
Advice on how you can reflect this research work in your college applications
To ensure a seamless transition between your research work and college applications, we will guide you on how you can reflect it.
Guidance on publishing your research once completed
At the end, we'll help you identify publications and submit your research to them.

- Affordability: Compared to other research programs of similar quality and structure, our program is very affordable. Other programs typically cost 4-6 lakhs, while our program is priced at a fraction of that cost.
- Expert mentorship: You will be mentored by subject matter experts from top universities like Oxford, Cambridge, and Stanford. These experienced mentors will provide you with personalized guidance and support as you develop your research skills.
- Strong foundation in research: Before you even begin your first research project, you will receive ten hours of recordings that explain the foundations of research. This will give you a solid understanding of research terminology, methods, and best practices, so you can hit the ground running. In other programs, students spend paid hours understanding basic research terminology and methodology.
Research experience can significantly enhance your college applications, raising your likelihood of acceptance by up to 20% at top-tier institutions. This is because colleges are eager to admit students who demonstrate intellectual curiosity and a passion for learning beyond the confines of a traditional classroom setting. Developing your own research paper/ article shows admission officers that you're an independent and critical thinker, who can contribute valuably to their field. Our program has helped students develop multiple papers, including original research and review papers. We also help students identify and participate in competitions to showcase their work.
