This summer, National Geographic Student Expeditions will send high school students to incredible parts of the world to explore hands-on with our experts or work on service projects within local communities. Whether they're monitoring golden lion tamarins alongside scientists in Brazil, photographing London's icons with the guidance of a National Geographic photographer, or tutoring local children in Fiji, our teen travelers dig deep into inspiring destinations all over the world.   Our 2015 trips are shaping up to be full of adventure and eye-opening experiences. In addition new trips to Bali, South Africa, and Nepal, we're excited to introduce National Geographic On Campus, an innovative pre-college program based at the University of Colorado Boulder.

NAT GEO PRE-COLLEGE IN BOULDER, COLORADO With National Geographic On Campus at the University of Colorado Boulder, students spend nine unforgettable days exploring alongside our researchers, photographers, and adventurers. This enriching pre-college program zeroes in on three vital topics hand-picked by our explorers: wilderness conservation, climate change, and how to effectively tell a visual story through film and photography. We'll take on these topics during seminars and hands-on workshops in University of Colorado Boulder's cutting-edge facilities, as well as active excursions in breathtaking Rocky Mountain National Park. Using their new skills, students then develop a capstone project to raise awareness about a critical issue and inspire action.   LEARN MORE
