Program details

Overview

Geology is a Bachelor of Science Major at the University of Manitoba covering the dynamics of the Earth's interior and surface, including the systematic study of minerals, rocks, structural geology, and planetary processes. The 120-credit-hour, four-year degree includes coursework in petrology, geochemistry, and paleontology alongside laboratory and field-based instruction, and students are expected to contribute to the cost of field course transportation and accommodation.
