Students can take this summer course in one of three locations: Upstate New York, the Dominican Republic or Brazil. At the end this five week course, SEE-U students come away with a keen appreciation of the scientific method and how to apply it, as well as a deep seeded love of nature and concern for its preservation. Students also earn 6 credits which may be used to fulfill science requirements at the home institution and have been approved to be used toward laboratory requirements at Columbia University. The deadline for applications with fellowship consideration is March 15th. Rolling admission may begin after March 15th pending space availability.
