This program enables working professionals to earn a Graduate Certificate through accelerated graduate-level coursework. It delivers training in two key areas: a.) core geochemical analysis principles, equipping students to adapt to evolving opportunities in earth and environmental sciences, and b.) practical methodologies (including sample collection/preparation, XRF, SEM, and ICP techniques) that prepare graduates for direct workforce entry. The Certificate requires completion of 12.0 credit hours.
The Geochemistry Graduate Program bridges geological and chemical sciences through interdisciplinary education. It features two subprograms offering multiple degree options: two MS/PhD tracks, two professional master's (non-thesis) programs, and a graduate certificate. The Geochemistry (GC) track focuses on Earth's chemical history and development, covering topics like crust/mantle evolution, resource geochemistry, aqueous systems, and mineral interactions. The Environmental Biogeochemistry (EBGC) track examines biological-chemical processes in Earth's biosphere and their anthropogenic alterations.
