Hawaii Islands
Ecology Program

From the summit of Haleakalā National Park to Maui’s colorful coral reefs, the Valley Isle has so much to teach us about endemic species, biodiversity, and our shared connection to the land. Cultivate your passion for the natural world as you you assist our Hawaiian partners with ongoing research and conservation projects, help with a community beach clean up, and explore the island from ridge to reef. Come away with tools and contexts for addressing the critical conservation issues that threaten the island — and how to apply this newfound knowledge within your community. There is an option to earn 3 undergraduate credits through the University of Montana (separate registration process and tuition fees apply).

 

EPI’s Individual Student Travel Programs are designed for middle school, high school, and college students. You’ll join a group of other passionate students from all over the country, assist with real wildlife conservation projects, and propel your career path forward with confidence and a new sense of independence.
