Additional Field Programs

Another option for EAPS students who have conflicts with the Stretch is to consider field-based courses offered by other universities or alternative accessible field courses listed on the International Association for Geoscience Diversity website. Substitute field methods courses offered at other institutions must be approved in advance by the Chair of the Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences. Since substitute courses will likely receive one or two Dartmouth transfer credits, a student will usually need one or two additional Earth and Planetary Science courses numbered 30 or above to meet Dartmouth's major requirements. Be advised that the registrar charges a fee to transfer credits to Dartmouth. 

In recent years students have participated in the Juneau Ice Field Program and SEA Semester.
