Center for Bright Kids - Regional Talent Development Center

https://www.centerforbrightkids.org/luminary.php

The Luminary Project is a three-week residential program held on campus for mature 8th-11th graders. Students focus on one intensive course of study for six hours a day that is an equivalent to one full year of honors level high school content or one semester of college content. Many schools consider these courses for high school credit, although CBK cannot guarantee this transfer. As much as students think hard in the accelerated courses, they play hard in this deepened residential experience. Many students find that life-long friends are made during this program, and full community weekend activities and trips are part of an energetic, structured residence life program.


Subjects include:

Quantum Mechanics: Surfing the Wave (M/S)
Poetry and the Human Experience (H)
Changing the World through Scientific Research (H or M/S)
Physiological Psychology—Brains and Behavior (M/S)
Bioengineering: Signal Processing and Control Systems in Robotics (M/S)
