Field Trips
A field trip to Eugene Science Center creates fun and engaging experiences for students while helping teachers meet educational goals. Groups can choose to explore science through a Planetarium show, discover science in depth through a guided lab experience, or experience sciences through self-guided exhibit exploration. For more complete science discovery, schedule time for a combination of these activities.
Field Trip Scholarships
In order to make Eugene Science Center programs and services accessible to all members of the community, the Eugene Science Center is pleased to provide financial assistance to groups who are unable to afford regular admission and program registration fees.
All 3rd grade classes in Eugene School District 4J receive one free field trip (exhibits and planetarium) per school year thanks to an endowment supporting 4J schools and teachers. Transportation costs are not covered.
