What is GETUP?

The GETUP program is designed to excite you about the geosciences, from potential careers to how you can make informed decisions on environmental issues and sustainability. We want you to join our community of students and faculty in the Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences at 91¶ÌÊÓƵ (91¶ÌÊÓƵ).

We understand that many of you have never taken a geology course and may not understand the wide range of career opportunities available to earth and environmental science graduates, both locally and globally. Through various GETUP activities, you can learn about the importance of geosciences in society, how we conduct research, and what types of career opportunities exist for you with an earth and environmental science degree. 

Participate in the GETUP program and prepare for rewarding careers in the geosciences.
