With its unique interdisciplinary research opportunities and collegial atmosphere, Brown's graduate program in Earth, Environmental and Planetary Sciences is rated among the top programs in the world.

Students have many opportunities to work with a variety of faculty, researchers and scientists. Our department is rich in observational, experimental, and modeling methods and your experience here will reflect breadth and experience across methods and disciplines. In addition to department programming, students gain invaluable communication and teaching skills through programs at the University's Sheridan Center for Teaching and Learning as well as regular meetings with their advisory committees, assisting the faculty with classes and labs, and presentations of their research during weekly informal "lunch bunches" and at national meetings.
