The mission of the Geology Program at Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi is to provide integrated and process-oriented curricula, based on fundamental scientific principles and processes that enable graduates to pursue challenging careers and maintain lifelong learning.

In addition, our program is designed to serve majors from geographic information science, environmental science, as well as science students in other fields who are interested in adding to their knowledge of the Earth and planetary system.

Learning Outcomes

Unique skills of geologists are their capabilities to apply a variety of analytical and numerical methods to solve applied problems and to reconstruct processes that have occurred in the past.
