SAGE, the Summer of Applied Geophysical Experience, is a unique educational program designed to introduce students in geophysics and related fields to "hands on" geophysical exploration and research. The program emphasizes both teaching of field methods and research related to basic science and a variety of applied problems.
Major support for SAGE is provided by the U. S. Department of Energy and U. S. National Science Foundation. SAGE is a National Science Foundation Research Experiences for Undergraduates program.
