We design our field studies with the end goal in mind. In the development of each program we continually ask ourselves, what do we want students to take away from this experience? How will this experience enrich their lives? The answers to these questions guide and inspire us to create programs that stimulate the emotional and intellectual growth in students. This is what we want students to return home with:
A Sense of Wonder
New Skills and Achievements
Return home with new skill sets, certifications, and credentials as marks of your Field Study achievements. Your continuous, hands-on experience with our professional scientist instructors culminates in practical, real-world learning and growth. Accumulate college credit as you explore the world!
Self-Awareness
During your Field Study, you will certainly learn a great deal of science. What is even better, however, are the things you will discover about yourself. Watch your passions come to life, gain greater confidence in your abilities, and return excited to make your place in the world.
Appreciation
Traveling has a way of revealing gratitude for the extraordinary and the ordinary. By gaining appreciation for the beautiful landscapes and cultures of your field study site, you will inherently find a new awareness and appreciation for your daily routine at home.
A Bigger Vision of What Is Possible
Explore the planet, a career path, a culture, a language. Suddenly, the world opens up and is more accessible than ever before. Field Studies are empowering experiences. Students return with new abilities and a greater sense of what is possible for them today and in the future.
