Geologists study the earth, earth materials, and earth systems to gain understanding our planet and learn how to strike a delicate balance between our society’s need for natural resources and our responsibility to preserve the environment. Explore and extract minerals or energy resources, dispose of nuclear and chemical waste, choose the best sites for structures, or study natural hazards—such as volcanoes or earthquakes—and figure out how to minimize their impact on people.

As an undergraduate student at Michigan Tech, it’s simple: if you want to do research, you can. Real research—the kind that creates solutions for industry, gets patented (sometimes with your name on it!), or addresses the problems of our modern world. Last year, our undergraduates spent 126,000 hours working on paid research.We’re ranked among the top twenty universities in the US in the proportion of research that’s sponsored by industry. And nearly 25 percent of our invention disclosures include the names of students as inventors. Students also get published in scientific journals, present at national conferences, and interact with scientists and entrepreneurs from around the world.

Graduate programs at Michigan Tech have rigorous academic requirements set by the Graduate School. The links on this page detail these requirements, procedures to complete a graduate degree, and forms required to track your progress. Graduate programs may have additional requirements for students.
