Summer Field Camp

Where classroom geology finally comes alive

Summer 2025 update:

SFA will offer a six-credit hour traveling field experience for the Summer I session with space for up to 10 students from other universities. This field course helps upper-level geology students make the all-important transition from classroom theory to real-world understanding while working in a variety of geologic settings. During the five-week course, we will use the spectacular setting of the American Southwest as a backdrop to help students explore geology in areas of compression, extension, shearing, metamorphism and volcanism.
