Earth Sciences
Explore the Department of Earth Sciences
Earth sciences are vital to understanding our dynamic Earth, ocean and atmosphere; our changing climate; and how to create a sustainable future. Students in the Department of Earth Sciences study the Earth from its core through its mantle and crust, into its hills and mountains, the water that flows through its rivers to the ocean, and the encompassing atmosphere. We offer flexible undergraduate and graduate degrees encompassing a broad spectrum of disciplines including geology, geophysics, hydrology, oceanography, ocean mapping, geochemistry, environmental science, and climate science. Our location on the Great Bay Estuary is near the White Mountains and the Gulf of Maine, and our state-of-the-art laboratories provide an ideal backdrop for hands-on learning opportunities. Join us in our journey of discovery!
