Overview

Why International Field Geosciences?

The rationale behind the establishment of this International Field Geosciences BSc degree offered at The University of Montana is rooted in the fact that most natural phenomena that geoscientists study either are quite literally global in scope or involve analyses and results that can be applied at more than one locality around the Earth.

Relevant topics include geologic processes associated with evolution of the continents, ocean basins, atmosphere and biosphere; surficial processes that shape landscapes; the search for economic geologic deposits; the analysis of global and local climate change; and the study of pollutants and their interaction with the environment.

For geoscience students seeking to optimize skill sets required for study of these subjects, field-based learning is an extremely powerful tool. Substantial time in the field places students into direct contact with their study subject (Earth), while providing a very efficient and effective means to cultivate marketable geoscience skills.
