As they work on subjects that interest them, they will acquire essential research skills.

What do our alumni have to say?

Our previous participants have some truly
inspiring stories to tell.

“I found the Online Research Programme classes very interactive. My tutor had economics experience from university, which meant that I was able to experience what studying economics at university would be like.”

Shreya

Economics Online Research Programme

“Out of this experience, I wanted to see if I was actually interested in Psychology and see what specific area I'm really interested in taking. My personal tutor was perfect throughout this entire program. He was very welcoming and understanding through all activities and allowed me to gain a deeper understanding of what Psychology truly entails. During the activities, he would always check up on me and never pressured me to get a task done.”

Online research opportunities & outcomes

Explore medical research early

Our online medical programmes give pre-university students the chance to explore medical research with expert guidance. Combining one-on-one tutoring and a research project, this programme allows students to investigate different areas of medicine before zoning in on the topic that interests them the most. At the end of the programme, top students can present their findings at the Immerse Online Symposium, gaining experience in presenting complex medical topics.

Develop key skills for the future

Important transferable skills, including communication, problem-solving, and independent investigation, will be developed by participants through working on their research projects. They will acquire the hard skills necessary to analyse medical issues, come up with solutions, and effectively communicate their conclusions. Studying​ medicine online also imparts time management and critical thinking skills, both of which are crucial for professional success in the ever-evolving medical field.

A well-rounded learning experience

There is more to our online medicine programme than just memorising medical information. Students will apply what they have learned in their research project, gaining better grasp of how medicine affects various facets of life by collaborating closely with an expert tutor.

Receive recognition for your work

At the end of Immerse Education’s medicine online courses, those who have completed an Accredited Online Research programme will receive 8 UCAS points or 3 college credits. All students will receive a Certificate of Achievement, which formally recognises the skills and knowledge they’ve gained. This certificate can be added to their academic portfolio, showcasing their commitment to extracurricular learning and medical research - helpful for university applications and future career opportunities in the healthcare field.

Join a global learning community

Our group online medicine programmes connect students with peers, mentors, and professionals from around the world. This global network helps students continue learning and sharing ideas long after Immerse Education’s programme ends. Participants can collaborate with others, exchange insights, and build a strong support system for their future studies and careers in medicine.

Prepare for your Medical career

Studying​ medicine online helps students prepare for the challenges of studying medicine in university and beyond. Through case-based learning and guided research, students build the academic skills expected at medical school - developing confidence in areas like scientific writing, critical thinking, and evidence-based reasoning.

Academic Insights: Parent’s Perspective Video

It’s been great having university students and graduates as mentors. It’s given my daughter insights directly from people studying or teaching at Cambridge, rather than just remote instructors. This has been invaluable for her, and we can tell she’s been inspired by them. When we speak with her, we hear how much more confident and at ease she’s become.

Jie

Parent of Academic Insights student in Cambridge

It’s been a great experience for my daughter. Besides the academics, it’s encouraged her to be more independent. She’s had to navigate a new environment, meet people from all over the world, and manage without us right there. She did really well and didn’t need to text us constantly, which showed she was adjusting.

Alexander

Parent of Academic Insights student in Cambridge

I would absolutely recommend Immerse Education to other parents, especially those with children Quan’s age. It’s such a valuable experience, and the international environment adds another layer of richness. I haven’t found many other programmes with this level of diversity and cultural exchange.

Thu

Parent of Academic Insights student in Cambridge

Communication from Immerse was excellent, both to me and to my daughter Evelyn. We received a welcome pack detailing what she would need to be ready, which eased the anxiety of travelling from Hungary to attend. I hadn’t been to Cambridge myself before, so it became part of the adventure for both Evelyn and me.

Michael

Parent of Academic Insights student in Cambridge

The programme has had a big impact on my daughter. A few days ago, she sent us a video, saying, “I’m going to be a doctor; I know my blood type and DNA!” Neither my husband nor I are in medicine, so seeing her dedication and how clearly she’s expressed her interest in becoming a doctor is very special. Immerse has opened the door for her, letting her see that this could indeed be a career path.
