Study Geology

Geology is a branch of scientific study, focusing on the composition of solid earth, and how their make-up changes over time, and in certain combinations. It gives insight into the history of the Earth, through studying plate tectonics and past climates. Geology also involves the investigation of how minerals can be discovered and utilised.

If you were a fan of history and geography at school, then geology combines the best of both worlds. The origin of our modern landscape is explored, as is how we discover, use and manage natural resources. Geology is a subject for curious people. If you are keen to discover more about the dynamics of Earth, its resources and economics - things not everyone knows - then this is a strong choice. Students who enjoy working outdoors will find this field of earth sciences a rewarding area of study. Field trips are commonplace, rather than a rare luxury. Geology is not a narrow subject, there is lots to learn. Geologists study a broad range of topics including plate tectonics, glaciers, floods, groundwater flow – even dinosaur evolution. Some of the biggest problems facing the world today can be solved by geologists. They are in constant demand for advice and study of natural hazards, dwindling resources and climate change.

Geology degrees teach students valuable transferable skills, such as presentation, research, and communication, as well as a range of geographical and scientific skills applicable to specialist jobs. Particular job areas include engineering, geochemistry and geophysics, hydrology, mudlogging, drilling and mechanical engineering, consultancy and analysis, data processing and surveying. Numerous companies offer graduate schemes in this subject, such as Amey.
