A natural laboratory - in our backyard
Wildfires in Colorado, sand bars in California and ore deposits in Wyoming. Laboratory analysis, field work and computers models. Those are just a few of the research opportunities that await you when you become part of the geology graduate programs at the University of Wyoming.
Whether you choose the master's or Ph.D. in geology or geophysics, you'll work closely with world-class faculty who are tackling some of today's most pressing earth science problems, from quantifying the strength of plate boundaries to developing strategies for sequestration of carbon dioxide from Earth's atmosphere.
