I was undecided what I wanted to do, I almost fell into the footsteps of my generation of being a Digital Media and Design graduate... but found my true calling of enjoying life outdoors and exploring our world and surroundings. GEO life!
I live in Alberta, Canada, and the starting wage for a geologist here is 70,000 a year. Definitely a great field to go into if you live where I do, there are so many options.
+MacSculptor How is the industry doing over there? Are the oil prices good at the moment? Because that greatly impacts the success of many petroleum geologists there. I would like to work there and was wondering how the situation is. Please reply,Thanks
+StudioOAC Right now the situation isn't great. A lot of people are going back to school to get their masters in geology to improve their chances of getting work.
At 5:00 did she just say? "You take it for granite" I started working towards a environmental stuies degree but in the course of that I got very interested in both Geography and Geology. I wonder if you can easily double major in these fields.
Ever since I was very young I wanted to be a Paleontologist. Once I went into that and found out that it was basically a dead end I took a lot of time to find a new love.. I wish Geology was my first. I couldn't be happier that I ended up learning it.. Going to school for Geology is the best decision I've EVER made.. Fell in love with it immediately
I never thought I would go back to school to get a science degree after first studying Shakespeare in college. But I loved Earth Science class when I was a kid. I thought minerals and rocks were so cool when I was a kid. I hope I do well!
I am going to enroll this summer in college however I'm divided in regards of what shall I study Architecture or Geology, honestly I like architecture due to my love for drawing as well that my dad is an architect however I've been working in landscape and construction for almost 4 years now and I'm love with the fact of been outside and exploring and working the outdoors since company I work for does landscape for natural reserves and the slopes across the freeways in San Diego CA. So please I would like some advice in what should I decide.
Only problem is that whats the chances of getting a job in geology where you can be earning 30k+ in 10 years? I would think slimmer? Wouldn't you? Thankfully I come from a country which is discovering more reserves of mineral gas which will probably last for another 5-15 years
Lol people think geology is free from math and physics when it basically is as worse as engineering. Geology is more specific than engineering. You have to specialize in some area. And for software you use computer program such as V8i CAD environmental. Lot's of math, lot's of physics and especially lot's of chemistry if you want to work in the mineral, oil and gas industry. I saw the article from last year in the nature geo science magazine and it was told that it's rare with geo students.
Mining geology is an applied science which combines the principles of economic geology and mining engineering to the development of a defined mineral resource Geology scienceis an earth science comprising the study of solid Earth, the rocks of which it is composed, and the processes by which they change.
Hello Sir. I need a career advice for my brother. He wanted to go for geology as he is having a keen interest in Geo. But as we do not about the scope & direction to go in this field in India, our father is pushing him for pmt exams & mbbs. So, please direct us the right path. Thank you!

Cody Hill The highest paying jobs are in oil and gas, so that involves figuring out where the best places to drill are
MacSculptor Do you think I would be able to work there with a B.S. in Geoscience from a CSU here?

That is the problem with a degree in geology. It better be a Masters if you want to find work.
I never take Geology for granite.

Kaylee Lopez How'd it go?
How did it go?
Geo kids beware its no cakewalk. As hard as engineering or physics
what a great program!!
I always hated Science but I'm so curious and studying Geology! :D I hope I will continue to love it!
BeautyTalkbyMelody can u make geologist

Thanks for posting this!!
A teacher and my school blocks any youtube..are there videos which are none youtube to aide me in teaching the work you guys do?
Geology sounds like a difficult career choice!
Yes
i gotta do this

WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN GEOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE degree? if I get a ba in environmental science, what are the outlooks and careers?
Josh H you can see if the college youre interested in has earth and env science for undergrad and then you can get your masters for geology
Great video. Even better accents!
i'm studying geology - how much money do you think can I earn if i start to work at a international concern like Schlumberger?
What's the difference between mining engineering and geology science?
Mining geology is an applied science which combines the principles of economic geology and mining engineering to the development of a defined mineral resource
Geology scienceis an earth science comprising the study of solid Earth, the rocks of which it is composed, and the processes by which they change.

Check the Geological Survey of India in Andhra Pradesh
@90smusicthebest Me too.
Ok if i complete my bsc and msc in some particular country will i be able to get a job in foreign countries???
I am master degree in Geology then given opportunity. Please help me...
its in such bad quality that even without my glasses i can see...
ROLL TIDE
Geosciences FTW
:)
I aggregate
Wtf no sun glasses
