Scenes From the Field
October 21, 2014
Fieldwork is an integral part of the Jackson School of Geosciences undergraduate experience, from Introduction to Geology to our cornerstone summer field courses. While other earth science programs have scaled back field offerings, we’ve ramped up ours, expanding courses in hydrogeology and marine geosciences.
Jackson School alumni and friends also highly value fieldwork: their financial support underwrites smaller trips and offsets the expense of longer summer field courses for hundreds of students.
These pictures are from the 2014 GEO 660, Hydrogeology, and Marine Geosciences & Geophysics (MG&G) field courses.

UT must meet the foundational needs of our students for them to succeed academically, build community and be prepared for the world after they graduate. One of the most essential needs is housing affordability.
As we continue to make progress in expanding affordable campus…
Exciting and important research! Great job Rebecca!
