(You score big, however, if you get someone who did geology as an undergraduate - it turns out that they are everywhere and they remember their major fondly.) This general level of geological ignorance opens up the opportunity for you to (briefly!!) extol the virtues of your training.įor example, compared to other sciences in which the answers are in the back of the book, geology deals with the real world. The disadvantage is that many employers do not really know what geology is or what it entails.
This gives you one minor disadvantage and one major advantage. If you pursue a career outside of geology, you will find yourself competing with a cross-section of undergraduate majors. It is worth visiting Placement and Career Services as soon as possible to figure out what opportunities exist and to find out when the major career fairs are. Instead, people in most majors head off to the University's Placement and Career Services to learn more about the types of careers that are out there and about how to assess their skills, prepare an effective resume, and land summer internships and job interviews. For example, few businesses hire people to discuss 19th century English literature. Most undergraduate programs do not lead directly to jobs within their field.
