The Soil Science department stands as a global pioneer in conducting landscape-level research through fieldwork. Our faculty engage in cutting-edge studies examining the health of both land and water ecosystems—bridging microscopic investigations (utilizing synchrotron technology for molecular-level analysis of fundamental processes) with practical environmental challenges. These span from landscape-scale examinations (exploring how soil composition, terrain features, and ecological variables influence ecosystem dynamics) to worldwide concerns (assessing how climate change affects prairie and arctic environments). Our graduate program delivers essential knowledge in soil and environmental sciences, with options for specialized research culminating in M.Sc. and Ph.D. qualifications.
