Field Courses in Alaska with Tatoosh School

February 28, 2018 at 11:35 am

Tatoosh School students become field scientists and participate in several long-term ecological and socio-economic research programs in collaboration with our partners while gaining invaluable experience and professional connections that can last a lifetime. Tatoosh School programs apply understandings of Southeast’s dynamic terrestrial, riparian, and nearshore marine ecosystems while compiling and analyzing data that supports land managers in their evaluation of the efficacy of techniques as projects progress across the region.

Students on 3- and 6-week programs enroll in two upper-division undergraduate courses concurrently; students on a 10-week program enroll in four courses concurrently. First-year graduate students are encouraged to apply and credit is possible.
