    Overview

    This course will give students an opportunity to learn about how different natural sciences intersect to help urban ecologists work together towards finding solutions for environmental and social challenges facing urban communities. 

    Applications for Summer 2026 open on November 15 and close on March 15.

    Students with a passion for the natural and social sciences, a love of the outdoors, and an interest in learning about urban ecosystems, will thrive in this adventurous, pre-college immersion program built for curious environmentalists who want to explore a human-nature connection. 

    Through a series of daily lectures and hands-on lab work, students will find themselves immersed in the world of field ecology and the research paradigm. Specific topics include hummingbirds, corvids, coyotes, osprey, trees, songbirds, and more. Artistic components of the course will include the production of a painted hummingbird cast.
