- A bachelor degree in Geology, Geological sciences or Geophysics offers a graduate the best preparation to work in the Geological engineering field as a Geologist. Geology is the science of solid and liquid substance of planet Earth.
- Geologists typically analyze the composition, structure, physical properties, dynamics, and history of Earth materials, and the processes by which they are formed, move and change. Geology is useful for mineral and hydrocarbon extraction and mining activities.
- A geologist is a scientist who analyzes the solid and liquid matter that make up Earth .
Geologists conduct their study using physics, chemistry and biology as well as other tools.
- If you already have a bachelor degree and wish to study for a Master, Postgraduate, graduate diploma or PHD / PHD degree in Geology, links listed below can still be used to access the faculty pages for more information about any programs on offer. Topics cover include mineralogy, sedimentary, metamorphic igneous rocks and petrology, exploration techniques, estimation models and material analysis etc.
- Geological training typically includes maths, physics, chemistry and some biology, in addition to classes offered through the geology department; historical and physical geology, igneous and metamorphic petrology and petrography, hydro geology, sedimentology, mineralogy, paleontology, physical geography and structural geology are among the many required areas of study. In recent time many geologists also incorporate GIS technology in their work for mapping techniques.
Earth science is also referred to as geoscience / geo-science and is broad term encompassing sciences related to the Earth. Earth Sciences includes the studying the atmosphere, oceans and bio-sphere, as well as the solid earth. - Typically Earth Scientists use biology, physics, chemistry, chronology and mathematics to construct a quantitative model of how the Earth system operates.
- A university degree in Geology & Earth Science prepares a graduate to work in the Geological services, Mining and Petroleum exploration industry as a Geologist, Geophysicist or Geology science officer.

Hi,
Here is Faheem Babar from Pakistan.Respcted authority, i have completted my B.S Geolgy(4 year).Now i want to take admission in M.S Geology.I have applied for a need based scholarship offred by PEEF(Punjab Endowment Fund)PAKISTAN.The jury have requirement that the applicant should have an acceptance letter from overseas university/collage in which he want to take admission.So will you provide me an acceptance letter to take admission in your renowed collage of geology?I will be very gratefull to you for this generious favour.
