About Geology

Geology degrees prepare specialists who analyse the Earth, its structure, materials, and organisms. Students examine how these change over time, as well as their impact on the environment and humans. Geologists look at processes like earthquakes, floods, and volcanic eruptions and try to understand and limit their effects on communities. Graduates find work as geochemists, hydrogeologists, and others.
