Brief Description: In the graduate program at Berkeley's Department of Earth and Planetary Science, we seek to support our students' ideas and ambitions, to encourage and develop their potential, and to challenge their assumptions. The central objective of our graduate program is to encourage creative thinking and develop the capacity for independent and original research in Earth and Planetary Science. A master's degree is not a prerequisite for the Ph.D. program, although those who have graduate experience at the master's level are encouraged to apply.
