Doctor of Philosophy in Geology

Ph.D. students are evaluated by two oral examinations: a preliminary examination, and a final examination. The objectives of the Preliminary Examination are to determine if the student is prepared to carry out original research at the Ph.D. level, the topic and scope of the proposed dissertation are appropriate, and if the student can communicate clearly. The final examination determines whether or not the dissertation and the student's defense of the research are of acceptable quality for the Ph.D.
The Department of Geology offers programs leading to the Master of Science in Geology, the Doctor of Philosophy in Geology, and the Master of Science in the Teaching of Earth Science. Students have a wide variety of choices in their courses and research programs. Departmental research programs include many aspects of geology, geochemistry, and geophysics. The Ph.D. degree is for students who wish to pursue a career in academic or industrial research in geoscience. To receive a Ph.D., you must be able to demonstrate the ability to conceive and carry out high-quality, original research.
