	Geology - MSN Encarta
		Geology, study of the planet earth, its rocky exterior, its history, and the processes that act upon it.
		The word geology comes from the Greek geo, “earth,” and logia, “the study of.” Geologists seek to understand how the earth formed and evolved into what it is today, as well as what made the earth capable of supporting life.
		The field of geology includes subfields that examine all of the earth's systems, from the deep interior core to the outer atmosphere, including the hydrosphere (the waters of the earth) and the biosphere (the living component of earth).

		Geology (from Greek γη- (ge-, "the earth") and λογος (logos, "word", "reason")) is the science and study of the Earth, its composition, structure, physical properties, history and the processes that shape it.
		The principle becomes quite complex, however, given the uncertainties of fossilisation, the localisation of fossil types due to lateral changes in habitat (facies change in sedimentary strata), and that not all fossils may be found globally at the same time.

	Geology - St. Norbert College
		Geology is a field-based science that integrates the principles of chemistry, physics, biology and mathematics in the study of Earth processes and history.
		Geology emphasizes the central concepts of time, space and scale in the study of planet Earth from the perspective of a unified Earth System (the atmosphere, biosphere, hydrosphere and lithosphere).
		A master's or doctoral degree is required for most professional positions in geology, and thus most geology majors are encouraged to prepare for and apply to graduate programs after completion of their bachelor's degree.

	Department of Geology - UIUC
		The Master of Science Degrees are designed to give students a solid background in geology, skills that can be applied in geology-related industry or teaching, experience in research and, in most cases, experience in teaching.
		Students with strong backgrounds (e.g., graduates from the geology, environmental, and geophysics undergraduate options in Geology at UIUC) may be able to complete this option in one academic year plus one summer session, but generally it will take two years.
		The written report for the Applied Geology Option is not as involved as a thesis, but must demonstrate the student's ability to work independently, communicate scientific ideas, and present a polished written product.
