Geoscience Careers

On the following pages, we introduce you to young geoscientists who – based on very different interests and expectations – have completed one of our geoscientific courses of study. We have contacted them so that they can tell us about their everyday professional life after completing their studies. In the interviews, you can get an idea of how the study program prepares you for a scientific career, but also for professions in the applied fields of geosciences. Enjoy reading and be inspired!
