Field of Study:
$30,848 /Yr
- The Geology Bachelor program is a popular choice for students wishing to pursue Geology as a second major.
- The Bachelor of Arts degree is not intended to prepare a student for professional or graduate work in geosciences unless the student takes the additional courses in mathematics, chemistry, and physics required for the Bachelor of Science degree.
- Employment opportunities are excellent for geology majors. Starting salaries are very high and climbing and demand for employees with training in geology is very strong. A wide spectrum of companies are looking for geologists to hire - the most prominent are in the areas of energy exploration (petroleum, coal, geothermal), mineral exploration, and environmental and engineering geology.
- Some courses take place entirely in the field, including the department's six-week summer field school, based in Canon City, Colorado. Projects include field mapping in the Front Range of the Rocky Mountains, pollution monitoring of streams in the Colorado Plateau, and field trips to Utah and New Mexico. Students gain valuable experience with traditional and computer-based mapping tools, with GIS, and with geochemical analyses. Other, optional, summer field programs include the Honors Interdisciplinary Summer Field Program in Geology, Anthropology, and Ecology, and the study-abroad program in Argentina.
