Geology examines Earth's physical composition and the natural processes that shape it. Environmental Geoscience focuses on analyzing the planet's geological and geographic makeup, along with the environmental forces that transform landscapes.
The University of Regina's geology and environmental geoscience curricula address pressing global needs, as modern societies demand greater mineral and energy resources while facing environmental challenges. Contemporary concerns like climate change, resource shortages, and pollution increasingly limit sustainable growth and impact our ecosystems.
These earth sciences hold particular significance for Saskatchewan, where petroleum, natural gas, and mineral deposits substantially contribute to the province's economy.
