A degree in Earth and Planetary Sciences will prepare students to pursue careers in a broad range of geo- and planetary science disciplines with direct environmental and societal applications. By selecting different tracks (petroleum geosciences, planetary sciences, and atmospheric and environmental sciences) graduates can be enrolled in positions in governmental organizations, private consulting firms, non-governmental organizations, and/or academic institutions.
Specifically, the Earth and Planetary Sciences program addresses the need of the UAE society to improve both the employability of UAE nationals and the necessity for skilled graduates to manage the environment and natural resources and contribute to the economic and technical development of the country. Knowledge of planetary science is introduced through the study of planetary geology, remote sensing, astrobiology, astronomy, and astrophysics, providing the skill set necessary for graduates to participate in the development of the UAE space sector.
On the other hand, a solid background in atmospheric and environmental sciences is gained through a large number of courses on Geochemistry and Environmental Chemistry, Climate Science, Astrobiology, Earth’s Climate History, Oceanography, and Hydrology. A specialization in petroleum geosciences is acquired through a number of specific courses including Reflection Seismology, Petrophysics and Logging, Seismic Reflection Interpretation, Reservoir Characterization, Reservoir Geophysics, Rock Mechanics and Reservoirs, and Petroleum Geology and Petroleum Systems.
