The program

Twelve weeks. Four phases. A PhD-level publication.

The 12-week structure

01

Onboarding & Topic Selection

Weeks 1-2

Meet your mentor, explore research areas, and define your project scope.

Students leave this phase with a peer-reviewable research proposal and a literature review specific to their topic.

02

Core Research Phase

Weeks 3-8

Execute your research plan with regular mentor check-ins and faculty guidance.

This is where the bulk of experimentation happens — weekly mentor one-on-ones and bi-weekly faculty office hours keep the work moving.

03

Paper Writing & Revision

Weeks 9-11

Transform your findings into a publication-ready manuscript.

Students go through multiple revision rounds, dedicated writing workshops, and faculty review of every draft.

04

Submission & Presentation

Week 12

Submit to conferences and prepare to present your work to the community.

Many students continue past week 12 as workshop presenters and as Algoverse mentors for the next cohort.

Who your students will work with

Researchers from the labs and companies that matter.

Algoverse principal investigators and mentors are active researchers at Google DeepMind, Meta, Stanford, Anthropic, Berkeley, and more. They include PhD candidates and industry scientists, all publishing at the same conferences your students will submit to.
