About the course
The UNH Earth Sciences B.S. program is well suited for students who desire a broad foundation in mathematics and the physical sciences, immersion in intermediate coursework to develop and apply field and analytical skills, and a focus on upper-level coursework specialized in climate, geology, geophysics, oceanography or petroleum geology. The Bachelor of Science degree prepares students to enter into geoscience careers in nonprofits, academia, the public sector or industry. The location of UNH, on the Great Bay Estuary and to the White Mountains, provides an ideal backdrop for hands-on learning opportunities for all Earth Sciences students. Students have multiple options to immerse themselves in research experiences in the field and in state-of-the-art laboratory settings, and funds are available by competitive application for support of such opportunities. Employment for geoscientists is projected to grow 14 percent from 2016 to 2026, faster than many occupations and reflecting increasing needs for energy, environmental protection and responsible land/water/resource management. Graduates may also use their geosciences degree to complement policy, business or legal careers. Scholarships - View all scholarships Internships
