地球科学理学硕士（论文选修）

地质学家研究地球的历史，材料，过程和产品。有些只追求学术兴趣，例如山脉的形成和侵蚀，而另一些则对实际应用感兴趣，探索化石燃料和矿物或计划建筑工地和处置地点。一位地质学家研究环境影响。地球科学系提供地质学，地球物理学和环境科学专业的理学硕士学位和博士学位。学生将学习最有效的方法，以检测地球上的石油，铁，铜和许多其他矿物，同时学习识别和调查环境危害的特性。我们的学生还研究了地球表面上方和下方的结构，以研究地震，海洋变化和地球其他物理变化。通过培训先进的分析，研究和合成方法，鼓励学生创造性地应用这些原理。毕业生
Through a combination of diverse courses in geology, geophysics, environmental science and petroleum engineering, sedimentary geology, and petroleum geophysics, you will acquire broad skills required for the interpretation of our planet's core characteristics. <br><br>TU's geoscience programs encompass a bachelor's of science, thesis and non-thesis master's program, and a specialty minor. In addition, Tulsa's long history of petroleum exploration and development provides you with rich opportunities for research led by our dedicated faculty.<br>Our graduates are well respected in the petroleum industry as well as other professions. They establish careers in the industrial, government, legal, and academic arenas as well as environmental companies that specialize in monitoring and remediation. Geoscientists enjoy the freedom of multiple work environments and utilize office, laboratory, and outdoor space to complete their projects. Job opportunities at state and federal agencies continue to grow as more Americans demand improved land and resource management.<br><br>Job opportunities: Hydrologist, Reservoir geologist, Remediation specialist, Geophysicist,Teacher
