地质学为您提供了探索地球运作方式的机会，当您将物理学与该学科结合起来时，您会真正感受到能量和物质及其相互作用。通过三种评估方法的任意组合对学生进行评估：课程工作，例如整个课程中完成的论文和报告，对课程中所学技能和能力的实际评估以及每门课程结束时的笔试。了解地质学是油气资源勘探的基础，这就是为什么我们在阿伯丁提供石油地质学学位的原因。但是，我们还确保您对地球的运作方式有基本的了解，因为这对于理解地球资源的性质和起源至关重要。
Geology offers you the chance to find out how the Earth works and when you combine Physics with this subject you get a real sense of energy and matter and their interaction.Aberdeen is the oil and gas capital of Europe making it the most relevant place in the UK to study Geology and Petroleum Geology.Understanding Geology is fundamental to the exploration for hydrocarbon resources and this is why we offer a Petroleum Geology degree at Aberdeen. However, we also ensure you have a basic knowledge of the way the Earth works as this is vital to the understanding of the nature and origin of Earth Resources.Fieldwork is an important element of our Geology degree, we make the best use of our location in Scotland – close to many great areas for fieldwork.Fieldwork locations include - Arran, Skye, NW Highlands and other areas throughout the UK. The MGeol programme includes a trip to Italy.Aberdeen is geographically perfect for the study of Geology, having some world-class field sites close at hand which can be conveniently visited on day courses. Many of the UK's top 100 Geological sites are within easy reach from Aberdeen and are visited by our students and staff alike.Many past graduates continue to work in the city and links with industry are therefore very strong with employability being second to none.You will have the chance to join the American Association of Petroleum Geologists Student Chapter. This is an active and very social Student Chapter which will give you the opportunity to expand your knowledge, skills and networks beyond the classroom.To expand skills, knowledge and networks even further, many of our students join the Aberdeen Geology Society.Our BSc degrees are fully accredited by the Geological Society for London.CareersEach year, over 91% of our Geology graduates are in employment or further study 6 months after graduating.Our degree(s) in Geology open up career opportunities with the global oil and gas industry, as well as other key sectors. Our degrees are highly respected by the oil and gas industry and our graduates are in high demand.Geology is also a subject that opens up tremendous opportunities for further study, either at MSc or PhD level.
