Discoveries in Earth Science Program at ECU
Applications are due by May 27th for the Discoveries in Earth Science Program.
Dates: July 10 (orientation)
July 11-15
July 18-22
July 25-29
The Discoveries in Earth Science (DES) program began in 2019 for elementary, middle, and high school students with blindness or visual impairment (BVI) and provides a unique opportunity for students in eastern North Carolina to learn Earth science in a university setting. Student participants will develop skills for identifying and characterizing geologic phenomena and materials. They will learn to use science equipment with accommodations and conduct science activities independently or with minimal assistance. Our staff and program personnel will include faculty and graduate students to support and encourage student experiences in learning Earth science. Additionally, there will be educational specialists with experience working with students with BVI that will be available to assist in our program’s mission. By the end of the program, we hope students with BVI will have the tools and skills to successfully conduct scientific activities in Earth Science
