Researchers and students in the Department of Earth Science use clues to understand how our planet has evolved since it formed four-and-a-half billion years ago. Geologists also explore how the Earth’s resources affect contemporary human life and society; particularly as natural resources become scarcer. Many of our graduates are working in organizations that deal directly with the environmental impact of human activities. Hands-on, real-world experience is crucial to the effective study of earth science (also known as “geology”).
