Geophysicists explore problems by application of physical, numerical, and computer technology to study Earth and the exploration of natural resources. They apply mathematics, the principles of physics, and modeling to study Earth’s interior, electromagnetic and gravitational fields. Earth is a complex system that has evolved over history and Geophysicists attempt to understand the processes that drive these changes over time. Student studying geophysics typically specialize in an area such as seismology, oceanography or volcanology. Geophysicists work on field-based research projects that require very sophisticated lab analyses or high levels of computation, as well as the use of electron microscopes, mass spectrometers, and supercomputers, among other tools.
