BA/BS in Geologia

Geology teaches students to understand, explore and protect natural resources, with fieldwork and laboratory methods in economic, environmental and hydrogeological geology. Students are taught by faculty from the relevant school, within a curriculum organised by semesters. The programme leads to both a professional title and an academic licentiate degree. This is an on-campus programme at Campus Huechuraba, in the Universidad Mayor, lasting 10 semesters. Graduates obtain the academic degree Licenciado(a) en Ciencias de la Tierra together with the professional title; the page lists the title as Geólogo (a). Applicants should consult the university admissions office for entry scores, fees and vacancies, because the programme page does not publish them. The page marks the programme as eligible for the state free-tuition policy (gratuidad).
