Course overview

Which part of our planet do you want to explore? Deep beneath the lithosphere, or out into the atmosphere? Our research ranges from the solid Earth to the fluid Earth and the processes that operate at the interface of these regions. You will be able to narrow your focus, choosing between the Geology and Atmospheric Science streams, and drilling down (or up) even further.
