Earth Sciences Fieldwork Fund
Learning in the field is a transformative experience for students.
From studying gigantic ancient millipede tracks on Arran, to ancient reefs and volcanoes in Spain, fieldwork is an enriching undergraduate experience.
Our fieldwork programme is central to helping create strongly motivated, highly employable geoscientists. This includes undergraduate fieldtrips and independent mapping projects.
