Harvard University Doctor's degree Earth and Planetary Sciences: Understanding our planet will be a fundamental challenge for the scientific community over the next century. Almost every practical aspect of society (population, environment, economics, politics) is and will be increasingly impacted by our relationship with the Earth.
Facing these challenges requires approaches that transcend the boundaries of a traditional "geology" department: The Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences (EPS) uses an integrative scientific approach that encompasses and includes many aspects of physics, chemistry, astronomy, and biology.
In addition to the collaborative exchange with other Harvard departments such as astronomy, chemistry and chemical biology, organismic and evolutionary biology, and the Division of Engineering and Applied Sciences, EPS has reciprocal arrangements with Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution for graduate students to take and receive credit for courses.
Laboratory facilities are available for radiogenic and stable isotope geochemistry, trace element geochemistry, geophysics, X-ray diffraction analysis, mineral analysis with an automated electron microprobe, spectroscopy, scanning and transmission electron microscopy, and sedimentology. The specimen collections in mineralogy, petrology, paleontology, and mining geology are among the best in the world.
