The Ph.D. in Geology, housed with the School of Earth & Environment, is a terminal degree program designed to prepare students for successful careers in scientific education and research. The program offers a highly flexible curriculum with an emphasis on developing the skills, expertise, and commitment necessary for graduates to become leaders in the scientific research community. The heart of the program is the Jean and Ric Edelman Fossil Park, a unique living laboratory offering opportunities for study in multiple subject matter areas within the geosciences and for inquiry into critical issues involving climate change, biodiversity, and sustainability. The Fossil Park is also a key forum for outreach to the community at large on these issues as well as on STEM education. The Fossil Park will have a state-of-the-art museum and visitor center, with the goal of official national accreditation for the museum as a type-specimen repository, where researchers, including Ph.D. students, can come and study the collections.
