Geology is the study of the earth, earth processes and earth materials. Geology focuses on how the earth formed, evolved, and how it will look in the future. A geology major is a scientist \u2013 you will have strong analytical abilities that emphasizes quantitative reasoning. The interdisciplinary nature of the geology major will lead to a strong background in the physical sciences. The work of the geologist includes energy in the environment, resources and extraction, and humans interaction with the environment.<\/p>\n
