The National Geographic Society has chosen UT to host a set of events to promote its Young Explorers Grants program on Saturday, September 20.
The National Geographic Young Explorers Grants program is for individuals 18 through 25. From monitoring threatened animals or documenting cultural change to exploring canyons—the program supports students pursuing field projects in research, exploration, and conservation. Grants also support initiatives that communicate science, exploration, and discovery to the public (e.g., journalism, film, writing).
