Kirby Assistant Professors : Christopher G. Daniel, Frederick D. Day-Lewis, Cynthia M. Liutkus (visiting), Jeffrey M. Trop A major in geology will provide the necessary background for those who expect to pursue graduate degrees in geology, environmental geology, hydrogeology, geochemistry, and other areas of geology. It also can provide experience in critical, analytical thinking and contribute to a liberal education, even if the graduate decides not to pursue a professional career in the geosciences. Recent graduates have been accepted into some of the best geology graduate programs in the nation. Other graduates use their general geologic knowledge, as well as their experience in areas such as hydrogeology, environmental geophysics and GIS, to obtain employment in rapidly expanding fields of environmental geoscience. At Bucknell, one can major in either geology or environmental geology, and each of these is available in both bachelor of arts and bachelor of science degree programs. These four tracks are united in having a common core of six courses in geology (GEOL 103*, 104, 201, 210, 214, 217). A bachelor of science track is appropriate for students who have made a decision that they will pursue a graduate degree in one of the geosciences or begin a career in a geologic/environmental profession. Students who elect a bachelor of arts track seek greater curricular flexibility allowing for a second major or a minor. Bachelor of arts students have attended graduate school or pursued careers in environmental law or policy, education, business, medicine, and science writing.

Extractions: about us undergraduate courses postgrad opportunities people ... intranet Course Menu Geology at Keele Intro Single Hons Dual Hons M.Geoscience Year ... Careers Introduction Have you ever thought ' How does the earth work ?' Geology is a fascinating subject that investigates how the Earth was formed, how life arose and evolved, why the Earth looks like it does today, what resources it contains and how we can find them. Much of our industrial society is based on the work of geologists in the hunt for natural resources such as oil, coal minerals, aggregates and water. Increasingly important now in our industrial society is the application of environmental and engineering geology. Geology draws on knowledge from many different aspects of science such as chemistry, biology, and physics as well as other subjects such as physical and human geography, environmental studies and economics. As such geology is the ideal subject to choose as part of a Dual Honours degree programme. It will teach you many transferable skills that are valuable for everyday work not only in geology, but also in many fields of employment after you graduate.
