Natural History Expeditions

Alaska Endeavour is a nonprofit organization, supporting science, education, conservation, and preservation. We host natural history expeditions in Alaska for high school, college, and professional researchers on our research vessel Endeavour.
-
For high school students, we take groups of six (led by our naturalist) to a remote wilderness location for a 12-day benchmark study, after which the students write and publish a professional paper. The scientific community and conservation organizations get the data, and the students get an author credit.
​
-
For college students, we partner with a research scientist and the Institute for Field Research to take six students from various schools out for research in that scientist's specialty (after a week-long, online course). The students earn college credit for their work.
​
-
For professional researchers -- archeologists, paleontologists, biologists, geologists, ornithologists, anthropologists, botanists, glaciologists, artists, film crews, historians, and others -- we take them to do their work anywhere in maritime Akaska, from Southeast to the Arctic.
As a nonprofit, our high school and college student expeditions are made possible only with financial support from people like you. To see how you can help, see Support.
