Indigo's Research programme was pivotal in shaping my academic journey. Firstly, the IRIS Next Gen scholarship gave me the chance to access this opportunity in the first place -- something I am very grateful for since research opportunities are not affordable to all high school students. Completing the research programme itself equipped me with many transferrable and subject-specific skills beyond my high school curriculum. Learning how to use JAMOVI and JASP to conduct data analysis opened my eyes to the mathematical accuracy of quantitative research in Psychology. However, the experience that I cherished the most was cultivating a connection with my professor, Dr Clark. Learning firsthand from a university level professor challenged me to widen my academic horizons and also undertake harder research tasks such as reading full length papers and conducting my own empirical study. At first, the experience felt slightly intimidating but just after 8 weeks, I had written my first 20+ page research paper with original insights! I believe that conducting research in high school will give me a strategic advantage in scouting research opportunities as an undergraduate student. Conducting my own empirical research through the Indigo programme was so thrilling that I have now decided to specialise in Research Psychology at University. Thank you Indigo!
