Earth and Planetary Sciences: Oceans
College or University: John Hopkins University
Type of degree: Ph.D.
Brief overview of program: Welcome to the graduate education page of the Morton K. Blaustein Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences. We offer programs of graduate study and research leading to Ph.D. and M.A. degrees in a wide range of disciplines, covering the Atmosphere, Biosphere, Oceans, Geochemistry, Geology and Geophysics, and Planets. Our goal is to educate scientists who will make fundamental and lasting contributions to their fields. Our graduate program is designed to give every student the training and the tools needed for independent research and a rewarding scientific career.
The core of our program is a close working relationship between the graduate student and faculty members at the cutting edge of research, with an education and research program tailored to meet the particular goals of each student. Examples of graduate student research and graduate student life in our department can be found throughout the pages of this web site. Graduate students in Earth and Planetary Sciences are full members of our academic family. They receive financial support in the form of tuition fellowships, research and teaching assistantships, and special scholarships. They share offices in Olin Hall, have access to all laboratories and research facilities, participate in seminars, field trips, and other intellectual activities.
We are seeking motivated students with a variety of backgrounds. An undergraduate degree and/or professional experience in the earth or planetary sciences is beneficial, but it is not a requirement for graduate admission to our department. Indeed we encourage applications from interested students with undergraduate degrees in all the physical and biological sciences, mathematics, and engineering.
