Definition
- Students entering the earth sciences have a natural curiosity about the world around them; they enjoy science and nature and are intrigued by processes such as volcanism, flooding and glaciation, or events such as earthquakes, tornadoes and solar eclipses. Concerns about the Earth, environmental issues and wise use of natural resources are also common attributes of those considering becoming earth scientists. The Department of Earth Science at the University of Northern Iowa encompasses five curricular areas: earth science, geology, astronomy, meteorology and earth science education. Because earth science is a very broad discipline, a career may take many forms. A degree in one of the six majors at UNI will start students working toward a rewarding earth science career.
