The program is open for Grade 10-12 students who have strong interest in Science, Engineering and Programming.

The Applied Science Academy is interdisciplinary covering traditional sciences such as biology, chemistry, physics and other emerging fields of science and engineering.

The Applied Science Academy director, Dr.Eden Steven, will oversee and participate in each of the students' projects. He will be supported by faculties at UPH and other research institutions as mentors, who specialize in biotechnology, computer science and others.

-Learn new experimental and data analysis skills.

-Stronger application for university admission.

-Opportunity to participate in scientific conferences, challenges and competitions.

-Further enhance the IB experience for students interested in science and engineering.

The Applied Science Academy is suitable for students who have strong interest in Science, self-disciplined, eager to learn new skills and have good academic track records.

Students will conduct their experiments outside of class hours. Just like any other extra-curricular activities, students are welcome to work on their projects after school, during lunch, or during weekend or holiday period. The science program has no fixed schedule and it is up to the students and mentors to plan out their experiments accordingly. For example, during exam weeks, students are not expected to perform their experiments so they can focus on exam preparations.
