Geology

Geology

Geology is the study of the Earth's origin, history and composition etc. Its sub-branches are mineralogy, structural geology, geomorphology, planetology and geological engineering etc. A person who carries out these studies is known as geologist.

The roles of geologists are very vital while exploring mineral wealth and natural resources. The geologists also determine conditions suitable for constructing railway lines, roads, bridges, buildings etc.

Geologists explore under-water resources and gas fields deep in the sea. They conduct tests to measure quality of soil by conducting geo-physical and geo-chemical tests.

Geology Eligibility Criteria


One can take geology as a career option at undergraduate level. An honours in the field at undergraduate level can help pursue master program in the branch. The minimum educational qualification in this case is 10+2 Science (or class 12th).

In India there are several bachelor?s and masters programs available in geology and applied geology. One can also opt for MTech or PhD in the field after MSc or BE (Bachelor of Engineering). Please see the list of universities/institutes offering courses in geology.

I think that’s a responsibility that I have, to push possibilities, to show people, this is the level that things could be at. So when you get something that has the name Kanye West on it, it’s supposed to be pushing the furthest possibilities.
