If you watch the news about the topics of the day like
rebuilding after a hurricane, the likelihood of an earthquake,
and even oil exploration, chances are a geoscientist will be
one of the experts adding insight.
Geologists study the make up of the Earth, from it's rocks
and soil composition to the movement and quality of underground
water. But you may be wondering where jobs in geology can be
found.
Geologists are employed in a wide range of fields including
the petroleum and mining industries, state and federal governments,
environmental consulting, as well as colleges and universities.
This science-based field relates to many facets of everyday
life from the fuels used in transportation to the metals used
in manufacturing, to the safety of people throughout the world
that live in areas prone to earthquakes, landslides, tsunami,
or volcanic eruption.
