A Must!!! My experience at Lumiere has been amazing and I can undoubtedly quote it as one of the best experiences till now. It provides great mentor matches and flexible schedules along with several other resources that help you to elevate the quality of your project. I grew a lot under my mentor from UCL, Mr. Gbentondji's guidance, both academically and socially. Further, I was also grateful to my program manager Ms. Saumya Kalgud who helped me manage my deadlines and supported me throughout the program. At last, I am thankful to both Stephen and Dhruva for giving me this opportunity to be a part of this wonderful program.

Lumiere Program Experience I really enjoy the overall design and organization of the Lumiere program. The syllabus of the program is given to you at the beginning to the program, and if you follow the syllabus, you will not have a hard time completing a high quality research paper. I really appreciated the help given to me from my mentor. This is my first time writing a research paper, however, with his help, I now fully obtained the skill of writing a standard paper. He answered my questions both in meetings and in emails immediately and motivated me during my writing process. Overall, I enjoyed this program a lot and learned both about the topic I researched and writing skills for academic papers.

My incredible research journey as a complete beginner I joined the Lumiere Research Program having zero knowledge about research. As someone living in a developing country, I initially thought it was beyond my reach. However, thanks to the generous financial aid provided, I was given the opportunity to let my curiosity shine. With the support of a kind and excellent mentor, as well as a whole caring staff, Lumiere provided an experience that not only made me feel empowered and smarter, but also equipped me better for the world. Today, I can truly say that Lumiere has had a profound impact on my intellectual and personal growth and I am grateful for that!

My smooth experience with Lumiere Lumiere has networked with the best mentors who are not only always willing to help you but also patient enough to listen to your ideas. Each week, my mentor pushed me to go a step ahead in my journey and he believed that what I learn while researching matters more than a .docx file. In addition to this the staff demonstrates excellent work ethic. It was great to have them during any problems, always ready with their strategies and management.

It was an amazing experience thanks to… It was an amazing experience thanks to all services that have been provided throughout the course such as mentor, manager, writing mentor, and workshops. They were really helpful. However, I got one problem with Tracker platform, so I didn’t use it at all.
