Geological engineers address challenges by employing diverse methods, from field-based geological assessments to engineering design, remote sensing, and computer simulations.
They safeguard the environment through ecological restoration and responsible stewardship of natural assets like groundwater. They also protect communities by detecting and reducing risks from natural disasters such as floods, seismic events, and slope failures.
This field offers vibrant career opportunities across multiple sectors, including geotechnical and environmental consulting, water resource planning, petroleum and mineral extraction, and construction projects.
A geological engineer's work typically balances field assignments, lab analysis, and office duties. Field activities may involve surveying and documenting rock formations, gathering samples for property testing, or implementing on-site evaluation programs. Lab responsibilities could include measuring material strength and permeability or coordinating research initiatives. Office tasks encompass data interpretation, creating geological models, preparing technical reports, and contributing to engineering project development.

Qualification Requirements
Admission is selective and based on a combination of secondary school core curriculum (a set of required secondary school classes), ACT and/or SAT composite scores (if available), grade point average (GPA), and class rank percentile. (For non-ranking schools, GPA will be used to evaluate your application).
International students must fulfill the same admission requirements as domestic applicants, but standardized test scores (ACT or SAT) are not required but should be submitted if available. Meeting the minimum requirements, however, does not guarantee admission, nor does it guarantee admission to a particular program. Missouri S&T appreciates well-rounded students and evaluates each application individually.
Missouri S&T may request that you provide an official transcript evaluation from the World Education Services (WES). If this is required, it will be visible on your application checklist after submission of your application, or an admissions representative will contact you to request it.
Minimum English proficiency test score requirements are 80 for TOEFL, 6.5 for IELTS, 58 for PTE, or 105 for Duolingo. We also accept SAT ERW score minimum of 500.
