Geneseo’s Department of Geological Sciences (GSCI) is a highly student-centered department that houses the programs for the B.A. in Geological Sciences, the B.A. in Geochemistry, the B.A. in Geophysics, an Earth Science Adolescent Certification Program and the GSCI minor. Each of these programs provides Geneseo students with a strong foundation in the geosciences. Our graduates are highly successful in finding positions in teaching, industry, and graduate programs.
Students graduating from Geneseo with one of our degrees are invaluable to New York State since we are educating geoscientists who will be future teachers, professional geologists and environmental scientists. The B.A. in Geological Sciences is a certified state-licensure qualifying program for Professional Geologists in NYS. Students who earn this degree are highly competitive in the job market and they are able to pursue professional licensure sooner than students from institutions that are not certified.
The respected and active GSCI faculty and staff are invested in providing all Geneseo students with a broad interdisciplinary approach to studying geology and our environment. We aim to foster a curiosity of how the Earth works and an appreciation how geology and society are interconnected.
