Expeditions

Expeditions are trips organized by university departments intended to:

• explore jobs and internships in various cities across the country, 
• provide an opportunity to network with potential employers, 
• meet contacts with companies in that city, and
• find and meet local church members. 

Because the expeditions use a considerable amount of university funding, it is expected that at least 30% of attending students will receive a job or internship offer.

Students are expected to:

• pay 40% of the total cost; 
  
  • this usually falls between $200-$500 
  • the amount will be charged to your student account upon acceptance
• pay for all other incidentals, including meals and entertainment; and 
• in the event of withdrawal after plane tickets are purchased, pay the full price of the ticket. 

Below is a student-made video of an expedition.

BYU-Idaho students visited advertising, public relations, and marketing firms during a typical expedition to Seattle, Washington, in 2017.
