Geology is a broad field of science that can set you up for success in careers as diverse at meteorology, oceanography, geophysics, and engineering. You can specialize in the economics of geography, specific metals, water, glaciers, or soil composition. Meteorologists and atmospheric scientists study how the Earth's structure influences weather, while oceanographers focus on bodies of water. Geology even touches engineering, as geologic engineers study how the makeup of the Earth affects buildings and infrastructure. If you've ever been fascinated by dinosaurs, you can use your geology knowledge to work as a paleontologist.
