Course Overview

Career opportunities in geology are excellent because industry and modern society depend on geologists to find natural resources such as oil, gas, coal, minerals, metals, aggregates, and water. Geologists are also needed for designing foundations, tunnels, and other engineering projects. You could go on to work in mining, the oil and gas industry, hydrogeology, or geotechnical engineering. Geologists are also required for environmental projects such as radioactive waste disposal or carbon dioxide capture and storage. Degrees studying Geology combined with another science subject are accredited by the Geological Society of London.
