Exploration and Resource Geology with Professional Placement (BSc)

Program Information

School:Cardiff University
Faculty:School of Earth and Ocean Sciences
Degree:Bachelor
Field of Study:Geology/Earth Science, General
Description:Globally there is an ever-increasing need for oil, gas, metals and construction materials in a world where resources are finite. Even renewable technologies depend on minerals, metals and other resources. An exploration geologist needs a broad range of skills including an aptitude for fieldwork, good IT skills and the ability to make key decisions from limited information. These are the traits we aim to develop in our students through this applied degree programme.

The programme provides knowledge of processes that lead to the formation of a natural resource, be it a hydrocarbon or a metalliferous deposit. Between years two and three it also includes either an industrial placement or an applied geological mapping project.
