Every OCAR programme is a fully bespoke, one-on-one experience. You are matched with a single Oxbridge, top UK, or Ivy League researcher who guides you through producing original academic work — at your pace, on your topic.
Both OCAR programmes are 1:1 online research experiences. The only difference is the level of mentorship and whether you want dedicated support working toward publication.
