An Event for Youth
DOS co-sponsors this annual youth symposium organized by the Frontiers in Ornithology Association. It is a one day symposium focused on avian research and career opportunities.
The second Frontier in Ornithology Symposium will be held at Ashland Nature Center on 04 November 2023. Click the button below to be taken to their website for more information.
From the Frontiers in Ornithology Website:
an event for youth ages 13-22 and their mentors.
The primary mission of this event is to focus on ornithology, conservation science and related academic pursuits.
The symposium does not focus on birding, bird identification techniques, or listing birds, but instead on cutting-edge technologies being used in avian research and study, careers in ornithology and how to pursue that focus in higher education, vocationally or avocationally.
Our goal is to educate and inspire youth to take their passion for birds to a higher level.
Join us in November 2023 for a full day of keynotes, speakers, networking opportunities, workshops, and new friends!
