Your gift enriches all facets of our department, from innovating teaching and lab facilities, where faculty and students study the earth and planets, to going into nature to conduct illuminating geological field research.
This fund upholds our department’s tradition of high-quality instruction, cutting-edge experimentation, and collaboration between our students and top scientists. It provides unrestricted support, allowing us to relieve areas of greatest need for our students and researchers. Members of our department are driven by a fundamental curiosity about the past, present, and future states of the earth and planets. They cross disciplinary lines to uncover truths about atmospheres, oceans, the biosphere, and the interactions among them all. Our students are passionate, forming groups like the Geological Association at Berkeley and the Ocean Society, and attending field trips, where they gain invaluable experience researching the natural world. Your gift supports activities like this and many more, enhancing the collegial life of the department and ensuring its reputation as a nationally ranked center of geological inquiry.
