UBC and the Province of British Columbia offer exceptional opportunity for combined field and laboratory research. The Canadian Cordillera offers research opportunities in: petrology of intrusive and volcanic rocks of many kinds, and of metamorphic rocks of all grades; AND structural studies of complex metamorphic terrains exposed in three dimensions; AND metalliferous deposits of varied genetic types; AND mineral exploration methods; mineralogy associated with many different environments; AND complexly folded and faulted successions of bedded rocks in the mountain belts and plateaus, and in virtually undisturbed coal- and gas-bearing strata of the north-eastern province; AND numerous problems of engineering, environmental geology-related to water, slope stability, natural geological hazards, and hydrogeology (lakes, fjords, deltas, tidal flats, continental shelf, and oceanic depths provide a wide range of aquatic environments for students interested in sedimentology, geochemistry, biostratigraphy, and geological oceanography).
