Geology is the study of the Earth, the materials it is made up of, the structure of the materials and the processes by which they change. To pursue a career in this field, you must have Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics in 10+2. After that you may go for graduation in Science (B.Sc.) followed by post-graduation in Geology. Or else, go for B.Tech. in Mining Engineering followed by M.Tech.
Geologists work in the areas of exploration and production, water supply, environmental engineering and geological surveying. Other areas include environmental planning, hydrogeology and pollution control. Employment is often found within the oil, gas and petroleum sector, the groundwater and construction companies.
