A new study of decades worth of seismogram data shows that the surface of Earth’s iron and nickel core is more malleable than scientists thought.

Scientists have made a surprising discovery about the Earth's core that is almost like something out of science fiction. A ...

Previous research has found that the rotation of the inner core is slowing down relative to the rotation of the external crust, which may cause minute changes in Earth’s rotation and subtly affect the ...

Seismic wave data previously suggested the Earth’s hot inner core is slowing its spin. Now, researchers say it’s also deforming around the edges ...

Geology majors take core science courses in chemistry and physics, such as environmental geochemistry and physical geology. Advanced mathematics, data science and research methods courses also ...

Earth’s inner core is changing shape, scientists have found. The discovery resolves a long-simmering controversy about what’s happening at the heart of the planet — which was long thought to ...

As well as offering new insights into mantle composition, the drill core gives us other glimpses into Earth's deep geology and the conditions that could have been involved in the origins of life.

Scientists found that the inner core’s structure changes as it rotates. It deforms at its border, potentially accumulating more material in some areas and less in others — almost like creating hills ...

Has knowledge of a diversity of subjects that form the core topics of the Earth Sciences. This outcome will be developed by Successfully completing basic geology, science, and math courses as set ...

Required coursework: Aside from GEOL 790 and 795, there are no core courses specified for the M.S. degree in Geology. Course work laid out in the Program of Study is designed by the ...
