Bartle Field Trip to Florida Keys, Spring Break 2016
binghamton.edu → geology
The Department of Geological Sciences and Environmental Studies offers B.A., B.S., M.S. and
Ph.D. degrees in Geological Sciences and B.A., B.S., and M.S. degrees in Environmental
Studies. Follow this link for details on the degree programs in Environmental Studies at
Binghamton University.
Geological Sciences comprises thirteen faculty with research interests in Environmental
Geosciences; Sedimentology and Surficial Processes; Geochemistry and Petrology; Structural
Geology and Basin Analysis. There are a number of different perspectives within these different
focus areas and great diversity in research problems tackled. There is flexibility for students to
tailor their program of study to their individual professional objectives at both the undergraduate
and graduate levels. Our small size fosters close faculty – student interactions at all levels,
including opportunities for field trips associated with some classes. Highlights of our program
include longer field excursions and seminars by noted geologists, both underwritten by the
Department's Bartle Fund (named in honor of Binghamton University's first President, the
geologist Glenn Bartle).
Our undergraduate programs are built around four core courses designed to give students a
breadth of knowledge in the geological sciences. Students then choose an advanced track with
course programs that emphasize Environmental Geoscience, Geophysics, or more traditional
Geology. Undergraduates are encouraged to become involved in research and many continue on
for advanced degrees in the geosciences.
Our M.S. degree is intended to prepare students for a job in industry or as a stepping stone to a
Ph.D. degree, either at Binghamton or at another university. The Ph.D degree is intended to train
future academic geoscientists, industry research geoscientists, or government research
geoscientists. Both of our advanced degrees are based on a breadth of coursework coupled with a
thesis (M.S.) or dissertation (Ph.D), both of which comprise publishable work in one of our
subdisciplines.
