Stanford University – Geological Sciences

The geoscientists and students in Stanford’s Geological Sciences department study the properties of Earth materials, like minerals, rocks, soils, sediments and water, to learn about the history and future of the Earth and other planets. Their work also helps us understand risks from natural hazards, availability of natural resources, and interactions between humans and the Earth.

The Bay Area Science Festival encourages you to get vaccinated, wear a mask and practice social distancing. Be sure to check back for updated and more detailed COVID safety information prior to attending.
