The Department of Geological Sciences offers programs leading to<br />

the Master of Science (thesis), the Master of Science in Teaching<br />

(nonthesis), and the Doctor of Philosophy degrees in geology.<br />

Requirements for these degrees are described in the General<br />

Information section of this catalog.<br />

The Department has identified six primary areas of emphasis in its<br />

research and teaching programs: environmental geology and<br />

hydrology, paleoclimatology, tectonophysics, geochemistry and<br />

mineralogy/petrology, marine and coastal geology, and<br />

paleomagnetism. For more detailed information on current<br />

departmental activities, faculty, and research centers, see<br />

http://web.geology.ufl.edu. The Department has collaborative,<br />

interdisciplinary programs of study and research with the Florida<br />

Museum of Natural History, the Center for Wetlands Research, the<br />

Land Use and Environmental Change Institute (L.U.E.C.I.), and the<br />

hydrological sciences cluster.<br />

For admission to graduate status in the Department of Geological<br />

Sciences, a student must have a baccalaureate degree with a major<br />

in geology or a related field or its equivalent. Deficiencies in<br />

undergraduate preparation can be corrected by completing the<br />

undergraduate courses without credit while enrolled as a graduate<br />

student.
