Geology/Earth science careers include much more than oil, gas, and mining! I list over 20 geoscience careers/fields in this video, including:
– Economic & Exploration Geologists, Petroleum Geologists
– Geological engineers
– Environmental, atmospheric, soil and climate scientists
– Structural geologists, geomorphologists, geophysicists
– Minerologists and petrologists
– Volcanologists

– Hydrologists and hydrogeologists
– Geochronologists
– Paleontologists
– Geochemists, Biogeochemists, Geobiologists
– Astrobiologists
– Oceanographers
– Meteorologists
Next, I review 8 of these geoscience careers in more detail (what they do, where they work, and what degree they need)
Finally, I review the average salary for geologists and geoscientists, then list a geoscience career option as a bonus! 😉
