Bachelor of Arts - Earth Science

Do you enjoy learning about the Earth, and the processes that take place on it? Want to delve deeper into subjects like geology, astronomy, meteorology or hydrology? The Earth Science program at UNI is the perfect place to get started.

Students will have hands-on experiences in the lab and the field, whether it’s research with professors, or an independent internship. Graduates go on to successful careers as park rangers, geologists, weather analysts, hydrologists, natural resource managers, and more.

In the UNI Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences, students will learn by doing – whether it’s studying volcanic rocks in New Mexico, analyzing water quality in Colorado, or sampling soil here in the Cedar Valley. Students will gain valuable experience through unique undergraduate research opportunities, and through group excursions and field experiences.
