Geology MESci

In Years One and Two, we provide core training in all key areas of geology. You will undertake an independent field-based project and complete a dissertation in Year Three. Modules specific to the four-year programme include Volcanic processes, Mineral deposits, and Research methods. Year Three and Four field classes visit Northern Spain and Tenerife. In Year Four, you will work within one of our research groups and complete a major geological research project. This will involve development of research and communication skills through a project proposal, literature review, journal-style manuscript and conference-style talk. Results often get published in international journals.
