  • The primary aim of the graduate program is to produce professional geologists with a sound grasp of current scientific problems and a strong technical background. We also hope to develop in these geologists the skills and motivation for continued learning that will permit definition and solution of new problems during their professional careers.
  • Proper pursuit of academic and career goals demands that time in graduate school be spent efficiently. Early development of a coherent plan for your course work and research is imperative. We feel that for maximum benefit all requirements for a master’s degree should be completed no later than the end of the second full year. For those students enrolled in the Ph.D. program, all work should be completed no later than the end of the fourth full year. Every effort should be made to insure that you are able to complete all requirements, including acceptance of the thesis or dissertation, before you leave campus to accept a job.
  • Upon graduating you will go on to positions in industry, government, and academe. As you move into the main stream of professional life your reflections on the geology program at the University of Georgia will be most welcome. Your suggestions will assist us in further developing a program that will remain at the forefront of geological science.
