School of Science and Health -- Earth Science Department

Hi, my name is Ashely Holt, and I am a senior here at U.V.S.C. in the Earth Science program. I graduated from Pleasant Grove High School. The Earth Science program here is really awesome. Our professors are the greatest. I actually didn´t plan on staying here at UVSC but I liked them so much I decided to stay. They offer a lot of outside research opportunities. We get to go outside and get our hands dirty and play with some rocks and dirt. It is really great to apply our knowledge. If any of you are interested in Geology, the way the earth works, rock or stuff like that, this is a really great place to come. It is probably one of the best programs around. I really enjoy it a lot here.

Graduates from the Earth Science Bachelor programs can find positions as exploration geologist, hydrogeologist, engineering geologist, environmental scientist, science manager, science technician, government regulator, environmental technicans, and engineering technician.

The employment opportunities for graduates from the Earth Science program are strong.
