Overview

Key Facts and Outcomes

If “geosciences” makes you think of dusty collections of rocks, minerals  and old bones, visit the Lawrence University geosciences department. You will discover a thriving group of faculty members and students who consider the geosciences to be a way of seeing the Earth, a lens through which the planet’s past and present come simultaneously into focus.

In a single academic term, you could find yourself mapping the roots of an ancient mountain belt in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, instrumenting a watershed in eastern Wisconsin, acquiring thermal drone imagery over landslides along lake Michigan, examining microscopic rock structures with image-analysis software, and conducting geochemical and crystallographic studies with research equipment shared with the chemistry department.

All Geosciences majors complete a research project as part of their  Senior Experience, and many present results of their research at professional meetings.
