2009 Field Studies & Institutes
Duke TIP offers challenging educational adventures to motivated, dedicated and talented high school students who possess a desire to learn in a unique setting.
International Field Studies: Duke TIP Field Studies are two weeks long and take place in U.S. locales or in countries around the world (including China, Peru, Belize and the Netherlands). These authentic academic experiences, similar to college field courses, allow students to take advantage of unique surroundings to fully explore the course material.
Institutes at Duke University: Living on Duke University’s campus, students experience college life first-hand. They study college-level material, attend workshops focused on the college admissions process, and live and study within the walls of the majestic Duke University campus.
