The Department of Geology and Environmental Geosciences offers graduate programs leading to the M.S. and Ph.D. degrees.

Because the number of places in the graduate program in geology is limited, the graduate committee may wait to make admission decisions until the majority of applications for a given semester are complete. In the case of an applicant presenting superior credentials for admission, however, a decision may be made immediately upon receipt of the completed application.
