Graduate Studies in the Geoscience DisciplineGraduate Studies in Geosciences offers graduate students access to one of the highest concentrations of earth sciences experts in Australia, as well as some of the world's most advanced and innovative equipment. Research focuses on the physical and chemical Earth processes, ranging from those that led to the Earth's formation and shaped its subsequent evolution, to processes impacting on our current environment. Research includes experimental, analytical and theoretical disciplines, as well as field-based studies. The presence nearby of Geoscience Australia and several CSIRO Divisions adds to the research potential both in terms of projects and potential advisers.Facilities available include XRD, XRF, ICP-MS, ICP-OES, ESR, OSL, noble gas, solid source, accelerator and stable isotope mass spectrometers, electron microprobes and SHRIMP ion probes, advanced computational and visualisation tools, access to vector- and parallel-computing facilities, equipment for high P/T studies of the chemical behaviour and physical properties of minerals and rocks, geophysical equipment for both terrestrial and marine work, scanning and analytical transmission electron microscopes, laboratories for the preparation of palaeontological samples, and specialised equipment for investigating the dynamics of oceanographic, geological and environmental fluid flows.
