North for Science! is a week-long field expedition for students currently enrolled in 7th or 8th grade. It is offered collaboratively by ASI, the Bureau of Land Management, the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service, and the National Park Service. Departing from Fairbanks, we travel north up the Dalton Highway. Over the course of the week, students are immersed in an outdoor experience as we traverse lands adjacent to Gates of the Arctic National Park and Preserve, as well as Yukon Flats, Kanuti, and Arctic National Wildlife Refuges. The activities are designed to teach participants basic camping skills and engage in multiple aspects of field science/research.

Thanks to our sponsors and collaborators, North for Science! is operated at no cost to the participating students. However, the program does not cover the cost of travel to and from Fairbanks, local accommodations, or other expenses incurred by out-of-town participants before or after the program dates.
