Geology is the natural science that deals with earth, the interior make-up, surface features, its formative and destructive processes, its age, history, and development through time. Earth is the natural habitat of all life including humankind. Urban and land-use planning and efforts to clean up our environment require a sound knowledge of geology and geological processes. Geologists are concerned with a diverse range of issues such as the origin, migration, and quality of ground-water, river and coastal erosion, desert-dune migration, the origin and evolution of oceans, continents, and mountain ranges, valleys and canyons. Studies concerning the causes and effects of natural hazards such as those created by land and rock slides, earthquakes, floods and droughts, and volcanic eruptions all fall within the realm of geology.
Geologists research the origin of Earth's natural resources and are extensively involved in the discovery, development, and conservation of the metallic minerals we use; the clay, sand, gravel, cement, and fertilizer we need to improve our living conditions; the water we drink; and the coal, oil, and natural gas we use to serve as our energy requirements. Geology also includes studies on the origin, history and evolution of life through time. Most importantly, Geology is concerned with the special set of circumstances that makes life on earth possible and earth so unique in our solar system, if not in the universe.
The Department of Geology provides an outstanding environment for studies of the workings of the Earth and planetary processes as revealed by their composition, structure, and history. The Department seeks to understand the fundamental processes defining the origin, evolution, and current state of Earth systems and to use this understanding to predict future states and to solve environmental problems.
Department of Oceanography
The Department of Oceanography conducts interdisciplinary research in the coastal marine environments, maintains advanced laboratories, seeks public and private research funds, and recruits and retains quality faculty, staff, and students. It provides an effective learning environment for students interested in careers in marine science or related fields, and also for students interested in science-based management of contaminated and human impacted coastal environments. Faculty research interests range from the ecology of phytoplankton, macro-alga zooplankton, nekton to the biogeochemical cycle of elements and numerical modeling of coastal processes. Graduates from the Department of Oceanography hold many faculty position in universities and colleges, as well as research position in industry, private research institutions, national laboratories,, and regulatory, agencies.
Graduates from the Department of Oceanography hold research positions in industry, private research institutions, and laboratories of marine sciences.
