Science & Engineering Projects

Experience interdisciplinary, collaborative, and inspiring science and engineering case studies, guided by PhD researchers and industry professionals. Built to immerse high-school students in design challenges, data analysis, and portfolio-ready presentations

Bioengineering/Biomedical Engineering:

Biomechanics & Tissue Regeneration

Illustration promoting Pebble Circle’s biomedical engineering research program where students explore biomechanics, implants, and tissue regeneration through PhD mentorship and real-world case-based learning.

About This Project

A 6-week immersive Biomedical Engineering experience designed for high school students eager to explore the intersection of science, medicine, and engineering.

Students investigate biomedical implants through the lens of biomechanics and biology, examining how engineered devices interact with the human body to support healing and restore function.

Guided by Ph.D. and industry mentors, they engage in case-based learning and collaboration to tackle real biomedical challenges and develop research-backed recommendations.

Learning Objectives

Students will build their STEM capabilities through:

  • Describing & framing biomedical problems

  • Exploring scientific literature & identifying research gaps

  • Designing experiments or simulations to test hypotheses

  • Analyzing data using tools & statistical methods

  • Communicating findings through mini-papers & presentations

  • Collaborating with peers and mentors in real-time discussions

  • Reflecting on their growth and identifying future directions

Program Format

This is a 6-week virtual research simulation from July 14th to August 22nd. Students participate in live mentorship sessions (up to 3 hours each) held once or twice per week, supported by recorded content and independent project work. Students develop and iterate their work with continuous feedback and guidance.

Portfolio- & College-ready Skills

  • Lasting foundation in scientific approach

  • Problem-solving

  • Hypothesis testing & study design

  • Data analysis & visualization

  • Scientific writing & presentation

  • Exposure to research & industry tools (e.g., computer-aided design, simulation, project management, data analytics)

  • Collaboration & teamwork

Eligibility Criteria

Applicants must be high school students currently enrolled in grades 9–12 with a minimum GPA of 3.0. Students must be at least 14 years old at the start of any online program.

Program Fee
