Field seminars

Each summer the Alaska Geographic Institute offers a full menu of active field seminars through the Murie Science and Learning Center. Seminars are limited to ten participants and are taught by distinguished biologists, botanists, geologists, authors, artists, and excellent naturalists.

Most courses are based out of the Murie Science and Learning Center Field Camp, located 29 miles inside the park along the Teklanika River. From this spectacular location participants set out daily to explore Denali's diverse environments. The Field Camp includes rustic tent cabins and a common dining tent. Learn more.

Summer camps, day programs and teacher trainings

In addition to field seminars, the Murie Science and Learning Center offers multi-day youth summer camps, professional development credit for educators through teacher trainings, and a variety of educational day programs. Learn more.
