Description
Geology investigates the origin, history, composition and structure of the Earth, enabling professional geologists to survey earthquakes and volcanoes; find oil, gas and mineral resources; develop land-use plans; monitor rivers, lakes and coastlines; and much more. Our program provides a foundation in the principles of geology and its related sciences with four laboratories, a seismograph and field experiences. A newer interdisciplinary track on environmental Earth sciences with a strong foundation in geosciences supports those pursuing futures in the environmental science area.
