Give by July 31 to send a student to summer field camp.

For students in the Jackson School of Geosciences, getting out and getting into the field for hands-on research are core components of the curriculum — and crucial to their ability to learn the skills and techniques needed to solve the world’s most complex problems.

This is why your support today is so vital to hit the $25,000 goal to send more students to field camp.

When you give, you’ll help support the best and brightest as they do field courses in geology, marine geology, geophysics and hydrology after every spring semester.

Already, we’ve seen some amazing achievements come out of the time students spend in the field putting their studies into practice. 

Jackson students have already made a difference by...

• Monitoring water storage in underground rocks to better understand and predict droughts and wildfire vulnerability

• Helping the State of Texas search for high-quality sand to rebuild its coastlines and protect its communities

• Exploring the inner workings of subduction zones to better understand the source of the world’s most damaging earthquakes and tsunamis

Jackson students continue to work toward providing safe and sustainable energy, understanding and combating climate change, ensuring a reliable and clean water supply and better understanding and predicting natural disasters. These are the types of problems that affect all of us. 

So please give by July 31 to help reach the important $25,000 goal — and help ensure that more students have a chance to continue doing their world-changing work.

When you donate to send students to field camp, you encourage the next generation of geoscience leaders to take what they’ve learned in the classroom and put it into practice in the real world… and solve real-world problems.

Thank you for your generosity!
