  • did you choose PLU? PLU felt like a good distance from home — not next door, but not too far from family. I really liked the atmosphere and culture on campus and the opportunities it gave me to be involved in more than just my academics. What led you to your majors? I knew coming into PLU that I wanted to major in environmental studies and probably double major with another program. Spring of my freshman year, I took a first-year experience course on the geology of national parks and fell in love

  • CareersA degree in Earth Science at PLU prepares you for entry level jobs in the geologic professions as well as continuing study at the graduate level. PLU graduates in earth science hold positions in geotechnical and environmental consulting firms, engineering geology, the National Park Service, the U.S. Geological Survey, state and local government agencies, mining corporations, and as teachers at all levels.Quick Links American Geophysical Union Association for Women Geoscientists

  • range of scientific realms, including physics, chemistry, biology, climate science, and geology. By examining the ocean from these diverse perspectives, students gain a comprehensive understanding of its complexities and significance. ESCI 102 allows PLU students to get their hands wet (literally!) with labs and field trips. These hands-on experiences reinforce theoretical concepts and foster a deeper appreciation for the natural world. One of the highlights of ESCI 102 is the field trip to the
