The Applied Science Academy at Sekolah Pelita Harapan Lippo Village aims to be at the forefront of investing in the empowerment of our younger generations starting from high school levels by providing an authentic research environment in areas that the student is passionate about. In the Academy, students work with mentors from different areas of research, such as biotechnology, advanced physics, robotics, data science, pharmacy, alternative energy, and many more.

From the director

Currently studying Medicine at Catholic Kwandong University, South Korea
It was an invaluable experience and I envy everyone who gets to be a part of it now that it is more fully formed and managed. It allowed me to build knowledge and experience that many high school students would not be able to obtain normally, and it is still helping me in my college education. It's also thanks to meeting good mentors who were very supportive of my work through and through.

The experiences I gained at ASA exposed me to various fields in STEM (electrical engineering, computer science, materials science), solidifying my interests in pursuing a career in academia, and enabling me to work as a research assistant as a first-year undergraduate by demonstrating my proficiency in the field.
Timothy Alexander
Currently studying Computer Science with a minor in Statistics at Pennsylvania State University, US
I think the experience helped expose early on some necessary skills required to excel in a competitive field and to be proactive in innovating new ways to solve different problems. It also exposes me to look at alternative ways to apply learning that is more practical and engaging as opposed to the more theoretical approach that we get in IB classes.
