Geology

Geology is a qualitative science that combines elements of physics, chemistry, biology and other sciences to study the Earth, the processes that make up the Earth, and the history of our planet. As a student in the program you will:

  • Examine rocks, minerals, and sediment
  • Study environmental hazards
  • Explore elements that make up the planets and moons in our solar system
  • And learn much more about our Earth's 4.5 billion-year history

Our location amidst the Canadian Shield functions as an outdoor lab and classroom. Our faculty regularly holds classes outside and organizes field trips and extended field schools to take advantage of the superior environment and give you practical training that is highly valued by the industry from day one.

Our faculty collaborates with industry, government, and other academics with research covering the spectrum, from pure to applied science. This breadth of expertise and course content can meet the interests of any student in the program.

Our program is designed to ensure that you will have the necessary courses to register as a Professional Geologist with APGO, which is required to work as a geologist in Ontario. This experience makes our students highly employable post-graduation.

The Lakehead Advantage

The fundamental goal of our Geology programs is to teach you how to map and identify rocks. This sets our students apart and contributes to a very high employment rate post-graduation working for organizations such as the Ontario Geological Survey and the Geological Survey of Canada.

Our location among the Canadian Shield is ideal for this type of organic, hands-on learning many other universities across Canada have to travel for hours to provide. Our field trips and extended field schools take place in Thunder Bay and the surrounding area, giving you great opportunities to apply in-class learning to real-world situations and materials.

Additionally, our strategic location has allowed us to maintain strong industry and community connections to facilitate summer research opportunities, mentorship, and experiential learning to supplement class time.

Transfer Options

It’s easy to transfer to Lakehead. Our pathway and general transfer policies are designed to help you maximize your credits from your current or previous studies at either college or university – or even both. 

There are a number of ways to transfer to Lakehead. Let us help you achieve your degree completion goals. For more information regarding specific admission requirements from college or university, check out the “Admissions Requirement” tab above and select your most recent level of study.

Applying to Lakehead University is easy and we are here to help you along the way.

Step 1 – Determine your general admission requirements:

 General Admission Requirements:
  • Completion of the Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD);
  • A minimum of 6 Grade 12U or M courses, or equivalent, including program specific prerequisite courses;
  • A minimum 70%* overall final average**

*Higher averages may be required for admission to programs in which the demand for places by qualified applicants exceeds the supply of available spaces.
**Admission averages are calculated using the top 6 Grade 12 U or M courses.  

Other Canadian High School Students
 General Admission Requirements: 
  • Completion of Grade 12 and the Secondary School Diploma (see the Program Specific Prerequisites section for your particular provinces requirements);
  • Program specific prerequisite courses;

  • Program specific prerequisite courses;
  • Equivalent of a minimum 70% overall final average (Canadian)

    Note: Meeting the minimum admission requirements is not a guarantee of admission.

Canadian College
 General Admission Requirements:

College transfer applicants who are applying to a program that does not have a college transfer pathway are eligible for admission consideration if they have:

  • Completed a minimum of 1 year of full-time academic studies at an accredited community college since leaving high school;
  • Completed the appropriate program-specific prerequisite courses; and
  • Achieved a minimum overall average of 70%.

As a first year Geology student you will be required to take:

  • Geology 1111 – Planet Earth with Laboratory

  • Geology 1131 – Crust of the Earth with Laboratory

  • Physics 1113 and 1133 – Physics Essentials I & II OR Physics 1211 and 1212 – Introductory Physics I & II

  • Mathematics 1210 and 1230 – Calculus I & II for Engineers OR Mathematics 1151 and 1152 – Calculus I & II for Social and Life Sciences OR Mathematics 1171 and 1172 – Calculus I & II

  • Chemistry 1110 & 1130 – Introductory Chemistry I & II

  • English 1015 – Introduction to Academic Writing OR English 1016 – Introduction to Professional Writing

  • One half course elective

 

You will experience a balance of lectures, seminars, labs and field work to ensure a well-rounded education

 

Our first year Geology courses will expose you to a broad range of topics that you will study more in-depth as you proceed throughout your degree, including:

  • Mineralogy 
  • Petrology
  • Environmental Geology
  • Economic Geology
  • Sedimentology
  • Geophysics
  • Plate Tectonics

We have two student associations for our Geology students, the Geological Association of Lakehead University (GALU) and the Society of Economic Geologists (SEG) Student Chapter. Both organizations host a variety of events, workshops and field trips to engage you within the university and the field of study as a whole. In the past, SEG Student Chapter has organized field trips with other Chapters to exciting locations such as Iceland and Sweden. 

Field work is a large focus of our programs. In first year you will participate in two, one-day field trips on campus followed by a seven-day field school in second year and a 2-week field school in fourth year – all of which takes place in Northwestern Ontario. There are additional opportunities to gain field experience as many of our graduate students hire undergraduates as field assistants in the summer. 

Our location within the heart of the Canadian Shield means that geology students regularly find summer employment with the mineral exploration industry that is active in the area. There are also opportunities spend your summers in other locations with these companies.
