How about studying geological engineering?

The graduate students majoring in geological engineering have a very good development prospect. The employment rate of geological engineering major is still very high. After graduation, you can engage in geological science research or teaching in scientific research institutions and institutions of higher learning.

Expand knowledge:

Geological engineering is an undergraduate major in Chinese universities.

This major trains students to have good scientific literacy and a high sense of social responsibility, systematically master the basic theories, methods and skills in engineering geology and geotechnical drilling and excavation engineering, and receive relevant engineering training.

Senior applied talents who can engage in engineering geological survey, resource exploration, geological disaster prevention and geological environment protection, geological engineering design and construction, geotechnical drilling and excavation in survey, design, construction and management units in urban construction, civil water conservancy, energy transportation, resource development and land disaster prevention and control.

Geological engineering mainly studies the general situation, evaluation, transformation and protection of geological environment and other related knowledge and skills, covering the ground, underground, land, ocean and so on, and plays an important role in engineering planning and disaster prediction. For example: investigation of geological structure and geological background of construction sites, general survey and exploration of mineral resources such as gold mines and lead mines, prediction and evaluation of geological disasters such as earthquakes, etc.
