Founded in 2012, Pioneer is dedicated to empowering future leaders through intriguing and challenging learning opportunities. Pioneer’s social mission is to transcend cultural, geographic and socioeconomic barriers to educational engagement.
Widely respected, the Pioneer Academics Research Program is the ONLY online research program officially recommended by many of the most prestigious gifted programs in the U.S.
Pioneer has set the highest standards for high school student research and continues to push them higher, holding all admitted scholars accountable for developing original research topics.
Pioneer’s rigor begins with its thorough admission process. Committed to reviewing every single application from a pool of several thousand applicants, the Pioneer admission process takes 6 ~ 8 weeks.
Pioneer Academics’ Research Journal is not about getting students’ work published. It is a showcase of some of the best research conducted across multiple disciplines. Approximately 2% of works are selected through a double-blind review by a multi-disciplinary panel of over 40 faculty.
