Why We Started Survival University

The Survival University was established in 2015 by Founder Jason Marsteiner. With a long history as a consultant for preparedness and survival, Marsteiner realized there was a need to educate and teach his clients through hands-on training. As the demand for training grew, with Jason as the lead wilderness survival instructor, so did our vision to welcome students to a campus that was abundant in natural resources. Now with 1,000 acres of pristine land (and growing), TSU is able to provide a unique opportunity to immerse students into the wild in a safe and structured environment. Now with over 20 + instructors who are all experts in their fields, The Survival University has grown to become a leading organization in outdoor education and wilderness survival skills training.

Choose your own adventure from our many course offerings. From Ethnobotany to our Hunt, Gather & Cook classes, we offer invaluable knowledge to increase self-sufficiency. Our Wilderness Medical Training provides a Wilderness First Responder (WFR) or Wilderness First Aid (WFA) Certification that is Nationally recognized. We offer adult, family, youth and women’s only courses taught by passionate experts who love what they do. Consider an adventure retreat or one of our wilderness immersion experiences including backcountry backpacking. For those who dream of a career in the outdoor industry or for those seeking an unforgettable and life changing learning experience, TSU created the 50-Day Instructor and Wilderness Immersion Program.
