At Lumiere, we believe talent is best paired with rigor and passion. Because of this, we have certain expectations from the members of our academic community. Our academic principles:
- You need to have big-picture curiosity and a strong academic record.
- You need to have the ability to work independently.
- You do not need to know everything about your field or topic before you start your research.
