Geology Program (includes Paleontology)

Geologists study processes shaping Earth today and through its history to learn how it formed, how it has developed over time, and how life has evolved through time in response to tectonic and climatic changes. In their careers, geologists may seek to understand the formation of natural resources like minerals or petroleum, protect water and soil resources, or mitigate against geologic hazards like earthquakes and volcanoes. The GEOL program at SDSM&T takes advantage of the proximity of the Black Hills through a rigorous field-based education that provides students a unique blend of hands-on experiences with strong theoretical foundations. Students have the opportunity to take electives in five focus areas including Environmental Geology, Geospatial Technology, Paleontology, Mineral Resources, and Petroleum Geology.

Geology Program Outcomes

• A graduate with a BS in Geology is expected to:
• Apply scientific and mathematical knowledge to problems in the geosciences
• Analyze and interpret geological and other scientific data
• Work professionally with a team
• Collect geological data (from the literature, field, or laboratory) to answer a scientific question
• Follow the ethical standards of the geoscience profession
• Communicate effectively in oral and written form
• Apply geological knowledge to global systems and human societies
• Investigate geological problems using appropriate technology
