Environmental Science and Geology Camp - July 2025

Our Environmental Science and Geology Camp is an overnight experience designed to introduce rising seniors (Class of 2026) and juniors (Class of 2027) to Juniata's Environmental Science and Geology Departments and residential field station at Raystown Lake.  Students will participate in a number of activities including a field trip to Tytoona Cave, Raystown Lake, a hands-on lake module, and overnight stay on Juniata's campus!

Each student and their family/supporters will also participate in the First Look on Monday, July 28 and be introduced to Juniata's broader campus community, application and financial aid processes.*

*Participants will be automatically registered for the corresponding First Look when registering for this program.
