University of Puget Sound

Internships with the Washington State Department of Natural Resources are helping Puget Sound students discover what a future in natural resources can look like. 🌊🌲
By applying their research skills beyond the classroom and gaining firsthand experience in the field, students are expanding their perspectives, refining their interests, and gaining a clearer sense of how they see themselves making an impact after graduation.

For more than 35 years, the University of Puget Sound's Summer Academic Challenge has offered a tuition-free, four-week enrichment program for students in grades 7–12. Through hands-on, project-based STEAM learning, students explore real-world challenges, build confidence, discover new interests, and strengthen the skills they'll carry into the future.
