The SFS Experience
For over 40 years, The School for Field Studies has transformed lives by inspiring students to become global thinkers and environmental leaders. SFS isn’t your typical study abroad program – it’s about doing, experiencing, and making a real difference.
Alongside expert scientists, you’ll dive into hands-on research, tackling complex environmental challenges from Cambodia to Kenya. Step out of the classroom, make an impact, and join a community passionate about creating a sustainable future.
Get ready for the adventure of a lifetime, where every day is an opportunity to challenge yourself and change the world.
