Immerse Yourself in Sustainability
The Wrigley Institute Julymester is a unique chance to help the planet while connecting with like-minded peers around the theme of sustainability!
Earn four units of credit in just four weeks as you explore sustainability topics in the sciences or humanities. All courses and activities take place in our unique, interdisciplinary learning environment at the Wrigley Marine Science Center on Catalina Island.
The 2026 Julymester is no longer being offered. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. Instead, please consider enrolling in a Dornsife summer course through the Environmental Studies Program.
How it Works
All Wrigley Institute Julymester students complete a month-long living-learning experience on Catalina Island. In addition to participating in their core classes, students engage in interdisciplinary activities designed for the whole group. These include problem-solving sessions, field research, recreation, and special events designed to train students in environmental leadership.
