A wide variety of equipment is also available for hydrogeology field activities, including field water chemistry analysis, well monitoring, groundwater sampling, measurement of unsaturated zone properties, spring and streamflow measurements, and surface and borehole geophysics. In addition, the Department of Geoscience is a member of a research consortium along with Northern Arizona University, University of Nevada, Reno and the U.S. Geological Survey at Flagstaff. This arrangement allows UNLV students and faculty to use equipment at these institutions. In addition, the department has a number of workstations with statistical and modeling capabilities. The department is housed in the newly renovated Lilly Fong Geoscience building and the adjacent Technology building.
Space is provided for graduate student offices.
