Geology, Geophysics and Exploration Geoscience

Geology, Geophysics & Geochemistry are for career-focused students who wish to learn how the earth works.

Geologists and geophysicists have an essential role in the exploration, assessment and development of Australia’s mineral and fossil fuel resources. Graduates are equipped for their vital role in understanding the development and long-term maintenance of the environment, to maintain resource output and to minimise damage from the rapidly increasing global population. Geochemistry adds another dimension to understanding the nature, origin and evolution of the Earth and its resources.

Field trips and field-based work are an exciting element of these courses.
