On behalf of the “Bilim-Innovation”, I congratulate your team, partners, and scholars on the Pioneer Academics anniversary.
Thank you for erasing the socioeconomic barrier and making us part of your educational community and the community of young, bold scientists. We thank you for giving our students tools, mentorship and rigor to explore various research interests, question existing scientific findings, and generate and work on their ideas.
As a network of schools that focuses on quality education and sciences, we share your vision. We believe that together we will raise inspiring agents of change who will stand firm and pursue meaningful goals. We wish Pioneer Academics to grow, prosper, and celebrate many more anniversaries.
Happy 10th Anniversary to Pioneer Academics! Thank you for being a leader in providing research opportunities through a system of quality and integrity for our students at Hisar School, Istanbul.
My team at NOVA International Schools and I have been privileged to work with the Pioneer Academics team for the past six years;
Congratulations on the 10th anniversary, Pioneer! Your holistic approach to guiding students by providing impactful educational experiences is profound, and your program has been a wonderful fit for many of our Davidson Institute and Davidson Academy students and families. We share your vision that the one-size-fits-all approach to education does not meet the needs of many students, and we appreciate your commitment to your rigor and principles ensuring the best education for gifted and talented students. Here’s to many more years!

The research process with Pioneer Academics was a great tool for my students to discover their future major/career interests and use it in their application process to US higher education institutions.
Pioneer is deeply committed to offering intriguing and rigorous learning experiences to students.
In 2020, when the pandemic crippled summer programs and opportunities, we swiftly put together a free research project for high school students.
Now celebrating Pioneer’s 10th anniversary, we offer special free programs – The Pioneer Research Summit, the Instagram event and Pioneer’s Exploring Research webinar series
Pioneer’s Exploring Research webinar series will deepen your understanding of academic research and allow you to preview key steps in the research process. And these webinars are free!
Curious about research? Not sure whether it’s right for you? Wondering how to choose the best program to help you meet your academic goals? The Exploring Research webinar series will give you the knowledge and experience you need to make the decision that is right for you.
