Geology, Geography, and Environment

Explore the richness of Earth and its peoples in a Christian learning community.

Join a group of highly motivated, inquisitive students to examine, investigate and analyze earth systems. You'll study with professors who bring years of experience and research opportunities, and a distinctly Christian viewpoint to the classroom. Get ready to dive into an active scientific community.

At Calvin, you'll serve God and one another through creation care in the classroom, the lab, the field, and across the globe. You'll marvel at God’s creation through everyday encounters with God’s incredible world. And you'll graduate ready to lead in fields as diverse as community planning, conservation science, and land management.
