Get Involved in GES
Wnat to meet people? Get involved with the Geological & Environmental Science Club ( GES club) . The studen-tled GES club enages in a wide variety of earth-related activities, from live staking for stream restoration to caving trips to rock-hounding.
In addition to clubs, there are many other ways for our students to get involved in the department, some on a volunteer-basis, others as paid positions. These are great opportunities for students to build up their CV, share their passion for earth and environmental science with others, engage in service learning, develop science communication skills and helping fellow students.
