物理和地球科学系提供岩石物理学硕士学位，以及地质和物理研究生课程。地质和物理学研究生课程为另一门科学，数学或工程专业提供了强大的支持领域。岩石物理学是对储层（岩石和流体）的物理和化学性质的研究。这是北美第一个此类计划，主要针对石油勘探和生产行业解决地下岩层和地层中流体的特性。该课程的工作包括研究生研究项目，是涉及地质，物理和天然气工程课程的多学科课程。
The Department of Physics and Geosciences offers an M.S. degree in Petrophysics, as well as graduate courses in Geology and in Physics. Graduate courses in Geology and Physics provide a strong supporting field for a major in another science, mathematics or engineering. Petrophysics is the study of physical and chemical properties of reservoirs (rocks and fluids). It is the first such program in North America, and addresses properties of subsurface rock formations and the fluid within those strata with particular application to the petroleum exploration and production industry. The course work including graduate research project is a multidisciplinary program with Geology, Physics, and Natural Gas Engineering courses.
