GEOPH-PHD - Geophysics (PhD)

The graduate program in Geophysics aims to prepare students to be leaders in the geophysics industry, academia, and research organizations by completing fundamental courses in their major field and related sciences and through independent research. Students are expected to:

• Apply skills developed in fundamental courses to geophysical problems

• Research, analyze, and synthesize solutions to an original and contemporary geophysics problem

• Work independently and as part of a team to develop and improve geophysics solutions

• Apply written, visual, and oral presentation skills to communicate scientific knowledge

• An in-depth technical understanding of geophysics problems at an advanced level (master’s students)

• Complete a scientific investigation that is significant, challenging, and original (doctoral students)
