Course Overview

Similar to Geology, Geophysics emphasizes the development of sound scientific skills and the application of these skills to the study of rocks, minerals, fossils, structures, landforms, and other geologic phenomena. The first two years of the B.S. program in Geophysics are identical to the B.S. in Geology, providing students with the basics of geology and geophysics and the allied fields of chemistry, physics, mathematics, and computer science. Upper level coursework focuses on two tracks and includes advanced study in either environmental geophysics or petroleum geophysics.

The Environmental Geophysics track focuses the geophysics degree on traditional and emerging methodsused for hydrogeological, structural and stratigraphic characterization of the uppermost 100 meters, with applications to shallow resource and groundwater assessment and the solution of environmental and engineering problems. Students completing the Environmental track of the BS in Geophysics are prepared for graduate school, or for employment in the environmental industry. Environmental geophysicists typically work as independent environmental consultants or with industrial corporation or government agencies.
