Overview

Program Description Geoscience emerged from the historic core discipline of geology, which focused on the rocks, fossils, and mineral resources of the solid earth, and of the past. Within the last half-century, extraordinary technological advances have shifted the spatial scale to the whole of the planet, and the time scale to include the present Anthropocene Epoch and future everyone must prepare for. The program does exciting things on course field trips, in lab settings, during heated discussions, or on field research projects throughout the world. No field is better equipped to prepare students for careers focused on the big picture of environmental change and whole-earth sustainability, whether in geoscience, engineering, law, land use management, public health, public service, environmental justice, and international relations. Every geo-student gets the personal attention they need from our staff, faculty, and fellow students. Our gateway course to the major (GSCI 2500) helps bond a new cohort of friends together. The "Cavern" in Beach Hall is our student basement hangout. Our library (with a view of historic center campus) is reserved for quiet study. Geoscience is the highest paid STEM natural science discipline, with an abundance of jobs and career pathways. Alumni from this program enjoy highly paid environmental careers, faculty positions in academia, specializations within K-12 education and communications, and --intrinsically-- an enhanced appreciation of our place in the universe.

OPT and STEM OPT eligibility depend on maintaining F-1 status and on the program. A program counts as STEM only when its CIP code is on the official STEM list — not because its name sounds technical.
