About ResearchX
Empower the Next Generation of Global Researchers
WHO WE ARE
ResearchX is a global education technology company specializing in research capability development and academic profile enhancement. Founded in 2021 in Toronto, with a regional office in Wuhan, our core team includes scholars and advisors from top institutions such as the University of Pennsylvania, Columbia University, McMaster University, Smith School of Business, and the University of Hong Kong.
Our Belief
We believe that in today's competitive admissions landscape, the real differentiators are not standardized scores — but verified research ability, authentic academic output, and trusted academic and industry recommendations. ResearchX is building a platform that efficiently connects high-potential students with world-class academic and professional resources — helping them grow into researchers ready to thrive on the global stage.
WHAT WE OFFER
Our research programs are built on PBL (Project-Based Learning) and SPOC (Small Private Online Course) models, designed for high school, undergraduate, and graduate students. Through close mentorship from professors at leading global universities and senior professionals from major industries, students complete structured research projects that yield recognized academic outcomes and dual-track recommendations — both academic and industry.
Real research, real faculty, real engagement
From topic design and literature review to methodology and final output, students follow a full research cycle. Every project is designed and led by a university-affiliated professor, combining academic rigor with admissions value.
Credible academic and industry recommendations
Students who meet expectations receive strong letters from their professor, highlighting their research ability and potential. Industry mentors also provide recommendation letters based on real project contributions, reinforcing cross-disciplinary value.
Admissions-ready research outcomes
Students produce research papers, reports, and other quantifiable outcomes. We support students in transforming their experiences into impactful personal statements and application highlights.
WHY CHOOSE US
Traditional Path Challenges
Traditionally, earning a recommendation from a professor aligned with your academic and geographic goals requires: getting into the right school → enrolling in the right course → building relationships → securing a research opportunity → delivering exceptional results → hoping for a letter. It's slow, uncertain, and out of reach for many.
Our Solution
ResearchX simplifies and redefines this path: In just 7–10 weeks, students complete a guided research journey, produce real academic output, and receive dual recommendations from professors and industry mentors — all aligned with their intended field and admissions goals. We don't offer 'prestige experiences.' We offer a structured, credible, and application-ready research path.
OUR VISION
At ResearchX, we empower students to move beyond passive competition — and grow into curious, capable, and articulate researchers.
