eMASCO

Geoscientist studies the composition, structure, and physical processes of the Earth, oceans, and subsurface environments. They apply knowledge of geology, geophysics, oceanography, and related sciences to investigate natural resources, assess environmental impacts, and analyse geological hazards. Their work includes field surveys, data collection, modelling, and interpretation to support exploration of minerals, hydrocarbons, groundwater, and marine resources, as well as land-use planning, disaster risk mitigation, and sustainable resource management.
