The information in this manual gives CSUN-organized field trips, leaders guidance, and checklists designed to help assure University participants’ safety and reduce liability
Field trip is a university course-related, off-campus activity led by a faculty or staff member and designed to serve educational purposes. A field trip would include the gathering of data for research (such as at a geological or archaeological site), a museum visit, participation in a conference or competition, or visits to an event or place of interest. The duration of a field trip may be a class period or longer and could extend over multiple days.
