The Department of Earth Sciences at Dartmouth College offers graduate programs across diverse research areas such as Earth Surface and Environmental Processes, Climate and Cryospheric Sciences, and Earth and Planetary History. We welcome applications for both MSc and PhD programs. The MSc program prepares students for professional roles in Earth and Planetary Sciences or for advanced graduate studies. The PhD program is awarded to candidates who demonstrate deep expertise in their specialization and complete substantial independent research. Our doctoral curriculum cultivates the abilities required to perform, analyze, present, and publish groundbreaking research in Earth and Planetary Sciences.
Successful applicants to the program have a strong general scientific background in basic physics, chemistry, and mathematics, and, ideally, a demonstrated aptitude for thinking analytically and solving quantitative problems.
