GRADUATE EDUCATION: In the absence of specific graduate program information, a year of graduate education is 18 semester hours or 27 quarter hours of graduate level college course work, or the number of credit hours the school attended has determined to represent 1 year of full-time study. This education must have been obtained at an accredited college or university.
BASIC EDUCATION REQUIREMENT: Applicants must meet "A" or "B" below to satisfy the basic education requirement for Geophysicist, all grade levels.
A. Successful completion of a full 4-year course of study at an accredited college or university leading to a bachelor's or higher degree that included at least 30 semester hours in mathematics (including calculus) and the physical sciences (geophysics, physics, engineering, geology, astronomy, meteorology, electronics, etc.).
**OR
B. A combination of education and experience -- at least 30 semester hours in mathematics (including calculus) and the physical sciences (geophysics, physics, engineering, geology, astronomy, meteorology, electronics, etc.), plus appropriate experience and/or additional education for a total of 4 years.

Experience managing a research project, either solo or multi-person. Experience with quantitative analysis of data with demonstrated experience with mathematics, time-series analysis, spatial analysis, statistical analysis, and modern numerical methods, and the development or leveraging of quantitative methods to creatively interrogate data sets in novel ways to obtain new and interpretable and physically meaningful results.
