They will encounter both the challenges and stimulation of college life as they explore fields of science, examine ethical issues, learn mathematics, improve study and communication skills and enjoy field trips in the arts and sciences. Through dormitory living students become more independent and learn to better manage their time and resources. The core academic component of Sandals-Teams consists of week-long mini-courses in biology, earth sciences, chemistry and physics in which students engage in laboratory activities utilizing instruments not available in high school.
