Research Independent Research & Field Study

Whether you are a student, independent researcher or leader of an academic group, Findhorn College offers you comprehensive support in accessing our world-renowned ecovillage. We support those studying sociology, anthropology, sustainability, renewable energy, theosophy, human geography and other disciplines to come and test their hypothesis, gather field data or incorporate an experiential dimension to an existing academic curriculum.

Our visit to Findhorn was so valuable as it gave our students an opportunity to experience sustainable design in the fullest of contexts

Field Study Visits – insights and inspiration for positive change

By providing a wide range of activities, tours, and presentations Findhorn College can create a custom-made site visit suited to your needs. Whether visiting just for a day tour of the site and a lunch meal at the Community Centre or joining residential bespoke semester, we will work with you to design a learning experience that meets your group’s interests and needs.
