Field Trips

Field Trips

Field study is an essential element in the study of ecology and conservation. Participating in field trips and research projects brings your learning to life.

From Jersey to Costa Rica

Bring learning to life

From studies on our biodiverse campus, visits to Kent rewilding sites like the Blean bison project, and trips to Europe and Costa Rica, students on our taught programmes learn practical skills in collecting, analysing and recording data.

Tropical Field Trip

The 10-day tropical field trip takes our students to Costa Rica to explore renowned rainforests, turtle nesting beaches, and diverse wildlife.

"Sandwich Bay Bird Observatory opened my eyes to a different field of scientific data collection as well as seeing conservation science in action. I'm now pursuing my dissertation topic on bird migration."
