The anticipation is building as we eagerly await the start of an incredible scientific field study amidst the awe-inspiring Himalayas. In just a month, the Master of Science in Science Education (MSSE) Program will embark on a transformative adventure, and we're excited to share this extraordinary opportunity with the vibrant community at Montana State University. Join us as we prepare to embark on the Nepal Educational Connection course and follow along with our journey through the majestic Himalayan landscapes.


Almost a Month to Go: The Countdown Begins


With only a month and some days remaining, the excitement is palpable among the participants who have already been selected to be part of this remarkable journey.
