Department of Environment, Geology, and Natural Resources
Prepare for or advance in any number of careers across environmental and geological sciences. Our master of science in geology and natural resources will provide you with the specialized knowledge you’ll need to work in the oil and mining industries, environmental consulting, resource management, and more.
As one of our student’s, you’ll attend classes that are small enough for you to get direct attention from our supportive faculty. But we are big enough to provide you with the resources and opportunities you’ll need to experience insightful field studies, work with faculty on their nationally published research, and successfully secure employment or career advancement after graduation.
