About
Students of all ages can learn about careers in geoscience! Young children learn about what geoscientists are and do, with an emphasis on hands-on activities. Middle school students can add to this knowledge by understanding what kinds of skills and interests are compatible with geoscience careers. High school students find out what types of course preparation they might want to undertake to prepare for a career or higher education in geosciences. In addition, they can learn about the breadth of potential careers and what benefits come with a geoscience career.
