This program opens doors for high school and undergraduate students worldwide to design and carry out meaningful field research. Rather than serving as travel experiences or school trips, projects must generate new scientific knowledge across disciplines such as biology, ecology, wildlife conservation, environmental science, archaeology, anthropology, and marine studies.
Awards average around $2,000 USD, supporting field‑based investigations that strengthen research skills and inspire future scientific careers. Selected students are recognized as Rising Explorers and automatically considered for membership in the Explorers Club, connecting them with a global network of peers and professionals.
Applications require a clear project plan, including title, description, timeline, budget, methodology, dissemination strategy, letters of support, and any necessary permits or ethical considerations. The emphasis is on strong ideas, practical execution, and the motivation to contribute new knowledge.
💡 Grants provide direct support for student‑led field science projects worldwide.
