Study the gaseous, rocky and icy bodies of the solar system and the processes by which planetary systems form and evolve. The investigative methods of Biology, Geology, Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics, Computer Science, Geography and Environmental Science are used in the study of planetary atmospheres, surfaces and interiors, as well as in the origin and evolution of Earth and its relation to possible life elsewhere. The Planetary Science modules are offered jointly by the Departments of Physics & Astronomy and Earth Sciences. Courses cover topics ranging from the history of planetary exploration and geology of planetary surfaces to analyzing the surface processes of bodies in the solar system. Methods involve image processing and mapping along with a solid backing in astronomy and geology.
