Secondary (6°a 12°)

As part of the requirements to receive the international bilingual academic baccalaureate diploma, 12th grade students carry out independent research work known as SIP. This project is guided by the teacher of the subject that bears the same name (SIP) and advised by different professionals from the institution, assigned to each student according to the objective of their work and the professional’s area of ​​expertise.

Developing scientific research skills and commitment to science becomes essential in a world where the multiculturalism of knowledge, ideas, technologies and ways of seeing, understanding and acting are so evident, which is why one of the fundamental objectives of the SIP course It will be to develop research skills in students that allow them to transcend their own knowledge and demonstrate it through their own scientific research.

At the end of this course, it is expected that students will have acquired various skills in the field of scientific research that will be useful for their university life. They will also present a thesis-style research work which will contain the fundamental parts of it and will report on this process in a final presentation. Finally, students must account for the management of their bilingualism, since those SIPs written in English must be supported in Spanish and vice versa.
