Publications by Geology faculty and students
The Geology Department has a long history of student and faculty research. Our faculty actively engage students as research collaborators and mentor students in their research activities. Research is an important way for students to learn how to apply their classroom learning and prepares them for jobs and graduate school.
All students conduct independent research as part of their senior project.
Over $400,000 in grants to Geology faculty and students over past 6 years to fund student-faculty research.
Students and faculty regularly publish articles and present their research at national and regional professional meetings.
