Contact: Kristen Andresen, 207-581-3742

At the beginning of the fall semester, first-year students in the School of Biology and Ecology get a one-of-a-kind introduction to life at UMaine: the Schoodic Experience. This year, on Aug. 24-26, students explored plants, insects, birds and aquatic ecology in this incredible outdoor classroom while getting to know their classmates and professors. The experience prepares students for the many fieldwork and research opportunities they’ll have as undergraduates at the University of Maine.
