Unique among the sciences, geology embraces a broad spectrum of scientific inquiry. Geologists systematically amass observation data and measurements to compile and organize the body of knowledge about Earth.
Specialized geological studies apply information and techniques from other sciences and engineering to solve problems of the physical environment. Examples of geological specialties include the following: paleontology, the study of prehistoric...

The development and survival of mankind is dependent upon the field of knowledge known as the Earth sciences. From the water we drink to the air we breathe, nearly everything we do is connected in some way to the earth. As a result, it is absolutely necessary to understand our planet’s processes, resources, and environments.
While the role Earth science plays in meeting society's needs grows, the job market continues to provide a good balance of...

Geology is the study of the Earth‘s chemistry, physics, and history. Geologists work to understand the complex systems at work in our planet and, through this work, to understand the origin and evolution of the landscapes that surround us. Geologists work in natural resource development, natural hazard management, environmental monitoring and pollution mitigation. Research projects encompass everything from glacier systems to volcanoes to the fossil...
A program that focuses on the scientific study of the earth; the forces acting upon it; and the behavior of the solids, liquids and gases comprising it. Includes instruction in historical geology, geomorphology, and sedimentology, the chemistry of rocks and soils, stratigraphy, mineralogy, petrology, geostatistics, volcanology, glaciology, geophysical principles, and applications to research and industrial problems....
Employment opportunities in geology or earth science include those in the petroleum industry, mining and minerals and education at the high school or college level. Other opportunities include water management, city planning agencies, environmental agencies, earth science research and the space program. Many of the jobs in geology or earth science require graduate degrees....
