Geology,
explore it with us...
  
Welcome to UTSA's College of Sciences geology program. We offer the
following degree programs: B.A., B.S. and the M.S. in Geology with
emphasis in water resources (hydrogeology), environmental geology, isotope
geochemistry, and applied geology., minor in Geology; Geographical Information
Science Certification.
The Earth is a planet limited in size and resources.
Geology is the science which examines the planet Earth, its composition,
history, and structure. In this exciting field
of study, geologists integrate biology, chemistry, engineering, mathematics, and
physics.
Geoscientists include geochemists, oceanographers, hydrologists, petroleum
geologists, mining geologists, geologic engineers, and many other specific areas
of study.
Geological interest of San Antonio and Texas: The present site of San
Antonio was once situated on the shores of a tropical sea, an area
frequented by dinosaurs. Portions of Texas were formed by a collision
with Africa. And a major fault zone trends through the UTSA area.
