At Montana Tech, learning doesn’t just happen in the classroom, it happens in the field.

Each summer, students in our Geological Field Camp step into the landscapes they’ve studied, applying their knowledge in real-world environments. From mapping rock formations to analyzing geologic structures, this immersive experience is a defining moment in their education and a critical step toward careers in geology, mining, and environmental science.

Now, with the support of Tetra Tech, we are creating new opportunities for students to access this transformative experience.

Field camp is more than a course; it’s a capstone experience. Students spend weeks outdoors developing practical skills that employers value most:

• Geologic mapping and data collection
• Field-based problem solving
• Team collaboration in real conditions
• Application of classroom theory to complex environments

Experiences like this prepare students to step confidently into careers tackling real-world challenges—from resource development to environmental stewardship.

And that’s exactly where Tetra Tech’s mission aligns.

As a global leader in environmental and engineering consulting, Tetra Tech works to protect natural resources, restore ecosystems, and design sustainable infrastructure solutions.

The Tetra Tech Geological Field Camp Annual Scholarship helps ensure the next generation is ready to carry that work forward.

While field camp is essential, it can also be a financial hurdle. Costs associated with tuition, travel, equipment, and extended time in the field can put this experience out of reach for some students.

Your support can change that. The Tetra Tech Geological Field Camp Scholarship will:

• Provide direct financial support to students enrolled in field camp
• Reduce barriers to participation
• Expand access to hands-on, career-defining experiences
• Strengthen Montana Tech’s pipeline of highly trained geoscience professionals

When you give, you’re not just supporting a student—you’re investing in the future of:

• Sustainable resource development
• Environmental protection and restoration
• Responsible land and water management

You’re helping students gain the experience needed to solve complex challenges facing communities across Montana and around the world.

Help send a student to the field. Your gift, of any size, directly supports students as they take the next step in their education and careers.
