About SEASIDE

The SEASIDE summer program is a great way to spend part of your summer in the field, learning practical skills and applying the theorical knowledge you have learned in the classroom. You'll gain ecologically-relevant training in field, lab, and other practical scientific techniques. These courses are intense, and require a student's complete attention for the duration of the course.

PLEASE NOTE: You must apply online and be accepted into a class. Once accepted, a $100 non-refundable deposit is required to reserve your place in each class, before you will receive permission to register. Especially for high-demand courses, your GPA (>3.0), earned credit hours, being in the co-op program, and your major may play a role in being accepted into a course.

Apply early, as all places in some classes may be reserved by the time online registration begins on February 27. See How to Register for more details. All in-person classes carry an auxiliary fee in addition to regular tuition to cover field-related expenses.

Auxiliary fees listed in the list of classes for 2024 are tentative and subject to approval by the university in May 2024.

International Courses will not be offered in 2024 – stay tuned for 2025!
