The Bachelor of Geoscience explores Earth from theory and field perspectives, using mapping, technology and historical data to build conceptual models. Students will learn how these models can be used to estimate where mineral, water and other natural resources are located beneath the earth's surface. Students will also learn how to extract these resources in a sustainable way as well as gaining experience in identifying and mitigating natural hazards. This course offers the chance to specialize in exploration/mine geoscience or environmental geoscience. Graduates in geology from Federation University Australia are eligible for membership of a number of professional societies, including the Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy, and the Australian Institute of Geosciences. Membership of either professional body carries accreditation with the Australian Stock Exchange.
