Master of Science in Computational Geoscience

The MS in Computational Geoscience, jointly offered by the Department of Computer Science and the Geology Department, equips students with the advanced knowledge and skills for careers in the geosciences that use artificial intelligence, computer vision, data analysis and modeling. The degree will prepare students for careers requiring computational techniques in the collection and analysis of environmental, geophysical, seismological, and geological data sets. These advanced skills prepare students for careers in fields as wide-ranging as hydrology, seismology, geotechnical engineering, as well as with tech companies that specialize in, for example, remote sensing and geospatial mapping. The program’s integrated coursework provides students with strong computing and analytical skills and a firm understanding of geological processes to solve problems with important societal and cultural implications.
