KEY trips are fun, super informative, and more are added each and every semester!

+ While some trips are tied to specific classes, many are open to any student, no matter their course of study.
+ Most KEY trips are free for students.
+ Our KEY program extends past the trips to become a supportive network of faculty and staff who are cheering on your success.
