Geology

About this course

Geology is the science of the Earth itself, of the rocks, minerals, and structures that make up our planet and of the processes that have shaped it over billions of years. It combines field observation with laboratory analysis and theoretical modelling to decode the history written in the landscape and beneath it. Understanding geology matters for reasons that are urgent and practical: it underpins the search for energy and mineral resources, informs our response to natural hazards, and helps us interpret the deep-time record of past climates that is now central to understanding our present environmental situation. At University College London, you will follow this three-year, full-time degree in one of the world's leading research universities, with access to outstanding facilities and academics working at the cutting edge of the discipline. You will study the composition and structure
