Jobs in geology are found in government agencies, private companies,
and non-profit and academic institutions. Government agencies hire geologists
to investigate, plan and evaluate excavations, construction sites, natural
disaster preparedness, and natural resources. Private companies hire geologists
to help locate natural resources (minerals, oil and natural gas), evaluate
environmental impact and comply with government regulations, among many
other tasks. Geologists who prefer an academic career usually work, either
as educators, researchers or both, in middle or high schools, colleges,
universities and museums.
