In 2006, a new program, RSI-Fudan, (Chinese name: [http://www.rsi.fudan.edu.cn/2006/ 未来科学家夏令营]) was held at [[Fudan University]] in [[Shanghai, China]] for Chinese students.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.rsi.fudan.edu.cn/2006/ |title=RSI-Fudan |access-date=2006-11-29 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070218172038/http://www.rsi.fudan.edu.cn/2006/ |archive-date=2007-02-18 |url-status=dead }}</ref> Thirty-five local students were selected from key high schools to participate in the program and the staff was composed with previous Rickoids and [[Center for Excellence in Education|CEE]]/[[Fudan]] affiliates from both the U.S. and China.  Five years later, in 2011, another new program, the Saudi Research Science Institute, or SRSI, was founded, and held at [[King Abdullah University of Science and Technology]] in Thuwal, Saudi Arabia.  In the first year of SRSI (2011), twenty-five scientifically talented students were selected and attended a six-week session modeled on RSI. The number of students was increased to forty in 2012 and 2013 and to forty-five in 2014. In the summer of 2015, the inaugural RSI Tsinghua was held in Beijing for the very first time.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.cee.org/research-science-initiative-tsinghua-university|title=Research Science Initiative at Tsinghua University {{!}} Center for Excellence in Education|website=www.cee.org|access-date=2019-02-07}}</ref> As an official cooperation between the CEE and [[Tsinghua University]], this program held research experiences for 34 outstanding high school students in China. In Sweden, Research Academy for Young Scientists (RAYS) takes place annually for 21 incoming high school seniors who are most qualified in STEM.

In 2009, Center for Excellence in Education started the first chapter in India in the city of Chennai, It was called Research Science Initiative-Chennai.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.cee.org/international-outreach|title=International Outreach}}</ref> It is an intensive four-week program held at the Indian Institute of Technology Madras. This was in collaboration with the PSBB Group of Schools, IIT Madras, Chennai Mathematical Institute, SASTRA University and other leading institutions in the fields of science and technology. This was with the support of all secondary schools in Chennai from where the students were selected. After a pilot program in 2009, it was expanded the following year with Ms. Joann P. DiGennaro presiding over the valediction.

A similar program, Summer Research School in mathematics and informatics, has been running in Bulgaria since 2001. It is intended for high school students with profound interests in mathematics, informatics (computer science) and IT. At first, the program was attended each year by 40 Bulgarian students but now in accepts international students. In 2016 the Summer Research School was attended by 50 students, of whom 9 were international. The program is organized by the High School Student Institute of Mathematics and Informatics.
