Bachelor of Science [B.S] [Geosciences] From University of Texas Dallas

Geoscientists study the composition, structure, and deep-time history of Earth. Research in geosciences will play an increasingly important role in human sustainability and leads the way as we adapt to the rapidly changing global environments in which we live.

Jobs with local domestic oil and gas companies and environmental companies have been, in the recent past, relatively abundant for graduates with Bachelor of Science degrees. The MS degree does,however, remain the degree of choice for most employers in the oil and gas industry as well as mining and environmental industries, and BS degree recipients will be well-served to have as strong of a background in the supporting sciences and communication skills as possible.
