The program provides advanced training in geology, applicable to geological problem-solving. Our graduates have a solid foundation of knowledge in the different core disciplines of geology sciences (mineralogy, petrology, geochemistry, and paleontology), complemented with advanced skills through specialized studies in selected areas. The field component includes a three-week geological mapping field school.

Students in Saint Louis University's Master of Science in Geoscience program apply physics and chemistry to study Earth processes from the surface to the core. These studies prepare our graduates for diverse careers in government, industry, consulting and academia.

This degree is designed for students who wish to become proficient in applying geological knowledge and geophysical methods to finding and developing reserves of oil and natural gas. Students can specialize in two focus areas: geology and geophysics. The geology focus area prepares students to be explorationists, with strong skills in using seismic and other geophysical methods along with geological principles to find oil and natural gas. The geophysics focus area prepares students to become technical experts in aspects of exploration seismology.

Environmental science is more important today than ever before. American University's Master of Science in Environmental Science gives students the knowledge and leadership skills to confront pressing environmental challenges facing the world, from climate change to renewable energy to food and water security. The program will prepare you for careers in science, research, environmental policy, and advocacy. With advanced coursework in climate modeling, geochemistry, conservation, and statistics necessary to inform science-based policy, the program prepares students to engage in high-level environmental problem-solving and to develop innovative solutions to critically important environmental issues.

In a world striving for sustainability, mastering circular economy principles is vital. Tomorrow University's Master of Science in Data Analytics for Circular Economy dives into the circular economy, a model focused on resource efficiency and minimizing waste, using data analysis. With an expert focus on circular economy principles, data analysis, sustainability metrics, and statistical methods, you will learn to optimize circular systems through data-driven decisions.
