About the course

Geology is the study of the Earth. Volcanoes, earthquakes, floods, landslides, erosion and plate tectonics are some of the things that geologists investigate and try to understand. Geology is a field-oriented science that involves mapping and analyzing rocks, deciphering the Earth?s history from the rock record, locating natural resources, identifying natural and man-made hazards, and understanding Earth?s natural processes. Saint Louis University's Bachelor of Science in Geology places a strong emphasis on chemistry, physics, calculus and fieldwork. It is appropriate for students who intend to go on to graduate school or become a professional geologist.

　　Additional program highlights include: Saint Louis University's undergraduate geology program has a low student to faculty ratio, giving students more opportunities to interact with faculty, receive personalized attention and take advantage of opportunities both inside and outside of the University. An annual department field trip in which faculty, graduate and undergraduate students spend one week exploring a region of the country offers a unique hands-on experience in which students learn first-hand about the Earth and its environment. The department heavily subsidizes these trips so that most students can participate. Scholarships - View all scholarships Internships
