About
Geology encompasses the study of earth material (rocks, sediment, soil, petroleum) as well as the relationships between material, oceans, and atmosphere; their interaction with biologic life; and their changes through time.
The Master of Science in Geology degree program teaches a solid, interdisciplinary background in the sciences. You will use a foundation in biology, chemistry, physics, and math to understand earth systems and earth processes.
You'll work closely with a three-person faculty advisory committee to complete your degree and research. We offer a thesis and a non-thesis option.
