Course Overview

AP Research-STEM is a Capstone Course designed to teach students to become active members of the scientific community.
The AP Research: STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) course is an advanced and high level course with a goal to build independent and critical thinkers in STEM areas. Throughout this course students will design and write an academic research proposal and a paper while learning advanced laboratory techniques. Students are encouraged to write within their field of interest and are guided through each topic with highly acclaimed mentors.
Although Thousand Oaks High School has two pathways for AP Research, Humanities/Social Science and STEM, the transcript does not reflect a difference and students are encouraged to select a course that best suits their interests and passions.
