Program Description
The master's pathway in Geosciences is designed to educate you in integrative and interdisciplinary geoscience: tectonics, geophysics, earth materials, geochemistry, and climate and surface dynamics. Led by faculty and researchers working at the forefront of scientific discovery, the program trains you for careers in research and education; energy and mineral resources; and environmental policy. You'll have the opportunity to engage in active research projects with the department's partners at ExxonMobil, ConocoPhillips, Chevron and Freeport-McMoRan, among others. This two-year program pairs its research focus with courses like Advanced Petrology and Chemical Evolution of Earth.
