"Why you should get a degree in Geology or Geological Engineering at SDSM&T"

Graduate degrees include a M.S. in Geology and Geological Engineering, a M.S. in Paleontology, and a Ph.D. in Geology and Geological Engineering.  Information on these programs may be obtained by clicking on the links at the left-hand side of this page.

We are a strong field-oriented department that utilizes the unique geological setting of the Black Hills and Badlands.  Study in the various degree programs often involves detailed research and investigations in and around the Black Hills region, although research is not limited to the local area.   .  


 

 

The Badlands (left) and the Black Hills (right) are both popular locations for field study during courses and often are sites of graduate student and faculty research.

 

 

 


Faculty to student ratio is high providing hands-on instruction by our experienced staff, which is an advantage in studying at SDSM&T.  As an undergraduate student, every opportunity will be provided to become involved in some aspect of faculty and graduate student research.  Many opportunities also exist to become involved in summer field programs.  What you do, ultimately, is up to how much you want to become involved!

Scholarship opportunities are available for incoming first year and continuing students alike.  For more information on scholarships/assistantships available on campus, click here.  For information on Geol & GeoE scholarships, inquire here
