Study Away

Travel the United States and learn with university students and faculty.

These faculty-led Natural Science courses are like short-term study abroad, except they stay in the United States.

We support many options for both Natural Science and other colleges majors.

  • Witness and apply earth systems and environmental science firsthand in faculty-led field studies in Michigan, Hawaii, Alaska, Florida and the Southern United States.
  • Earn Integrative Studies credit in general science.
  • Work for a summer or a semester in an Integrative Biology internship. Examples: environmental or genetics testing lab; wildlife research or conservation center; state or federal agencies; zoological park or aquarium.
  • Prepare for a zoo internship or career by rotating through all professional fields at an AZA accredited zoological park.
