Career In Geo Physics
Geophysics is major branch of the Earth sciences and sub discipline of Physics. Geophysicists study the physical methods. Data obtained from Geophysical study are used in academics to observe tectonic plate motions and to study the internal structure of the Earth. They use seismic, electrical, magnetic, and radioactive methods to prove theories. Generally the theories and techniques of geophysics are also used in planetary sciences.
- Geophysics is one of the newer sciences derived from physics. It is the study of the earth’s properties by applying physical theories and using instruments for measurement.
- Geophysics involves the study of Mathematics, Physics, and Geophysics. Geophysics is divided into two large parts: Exploration Geophysics and Global Geophysics. Subdivisions of geophysics include oceanography, atmospheric physics, climatology, petroleum geophysics, environmental geophysics, engineering geophysics, and mining geophysics.
- Geophysics can be studied at the bachelors, masters, and Ph.D. levels. IITs in India offer M.Sc/ M.Sc.-Ph.D Dual Degree programme. Explore more details on the following subject matters of Geophysics by clicking on the relevant one.
Geophysics can be studied in the higher degrees as any one of the three broad categories, namely Petroleum Geophysics, Environmental Geophysics, and Mining Geophysics. Explore more details on the following subject matters of Geophysics by clicking on the relevant one.
