Geology courses can help you learn about rock formation, plate tectonics, mineral identification, and the processes that shape the Earth’s surface. You can build skills in fieldwork techniques, data analysis, and interpreting geological maps. Many courses introduce tools like GIS software, remote sensing technologies, and rock sample analysis equipment, that support applying your knowledge in environmental assessments, natural resource exploration, and understanding geological hazards.
