General Program Information

The Geology Program at Oswego is committed to the intellectual, personal and professional growth of our students. We offer BS and BA programs in Geology, and a BS in Geochemistry (offered jointly with the Chemistry Department).

Highlights of the geology program at Oswego are:

  • small class sizes -- our classes for majors typically have enrollments of 8-12 students
  • focus on field experiences -- we run our own geological field school every summer and all of our courses have field trips to provide students with plenty of hands-on experiences in geology
  • student-faculty-professional interaction -- every Oswego geology student completes either an independent research project under the direction of a faculty advisor or an internship under the combined guidance of a professional in the field and a faculty member

These experiences ensure that our students are among the best prepared in the nation for careers in the geological sciences.
