DescriptionGeology is the study of the Earth, its components and the processes that affect it. Geologists seek to understand the Earth and its physical, chemical and biological evolution. Geologists can choose from an incredibly diverse range of careers, including mineral and hydrocarbon exploration, engineering and environmental consulting, volcanology, seismology, and other geologic, process-based research. They often divide their time among work in the field, the lab, and the office.

Students in the Honours program complete an Honours project or research project.
