Sierra College Department of Biological Sciences

 Biological Sciences' Field Studies Program



One of the many ways that Sierra College provides outstanding educational experiences is through its many field studies programs. Sierra College has been and continues to be a strong leader among the institutions of higher education in the State of California.

The Biological Sciences' Field Studies Program is a significant cornerstone and ongoing demonstration of Sierra's commitment to educational excellence and "down-to-earth" learning opportunities. The Field Studies Program has a long tradition, starting prior to the 1960's, taking many forms over the years, and providing a rich diversity of practical and strongly academic experiences for our students.

For your information and convenience, we have invited all of Sierra's field studies programs to list their field classes or to have links to their Web sites at this location: "Sierra College Field Studies Programs". Although, for the most current information, please contact the specific instructors and departments directly, and view the current and upcoming Sierra College Class Schedules for current enrollments and other important information.
