ITINERARY
This once-in-a-lifetime student travel program will give you the opportunity to assist with some of the world's most fascinating wildlife. Through EPI's partnership with the Ecuadorian nonprofit ECOS and the Mola Mola Student Eco Club, you and your students will leave the tourist sites behind to collect meaningful data and contribute to broad conservation efforts in the Galapagos. Your students will return home excited by nature and science and equipped with a deeper understanding of the conservation issues impacting this unique ecosystem.
On all of EPI’s student travel programs, students participate in real-life, ongoing wildlife conservation projects with experts in their field. Lessons and activities are rooted in the NGSS standards and are designed to spark students’ passion for environmental science and conservation. It’s time to discover a student travel program like no other, where exploration and science go hand-in-hand!
