Geology isn’t just learning about rocks; it’s the study of the Earth’s materials and systems, energy resources, mineral deposits, and complex environmental issues. You’ll need a crazy-smart education to tackle those societal challenges and Michigan Tech is just the place to get it. Here you’ll have plenty of lab time to study materials hands-on through a curriculum loaded with geology courses, plus a mixture of physics, chemistry, and mathematics as well.
Many geology majors get involved with the Aqua Terra Tech Enterprise program, a student-run business team focused on hydrological characterization (field and modeling), water supply assessment and system design, and treatability studies.
