SCHOLARS PROGRAM REQUIREMENTS
To receive funding for field-bases courses, you must complete all program requirements (see Academic Requirements).
In addition to the required core courses held on campus, all Sustainability Scholars participate in a field-based course or experience. All field courses must be a minimum of 3 credits.
Sustainability Scholars are eligible for up to $3,500 for their field-based experience course (administered as a financial credit in the student's account). These funds can be applied to course fees or related direct expenses (e.g. travel, food, and lodging) for an approved course.
Within 30 days of finishing your field course, please complete the Undergrad Field-based Experience Form. We appreciate your perspective about what you found most valuable and any recommendations for future scholars.
You are welcome to discuss course options in person with an education program leader at the Graham Institute.
