The interdisciplinary PhD in Earth and Energy Sciences will give you a multidisciplinary understanding of issues central to meeting the energy and environmental challenges of today and tomorrow. The four integrated disciplines that contribute to the program include chemistry, environmental science, geology, and physics. 

Doctoral students in the earth and energy sciences program acquire a broad understanding of all four fields of study and pursue at least one specialization to a deeper level through research. The multi-disciplinary awareness and research experience prepares our graduates for newly emerging jobs in industry, academia careers in teaching and research, and careers in consulting.
