"Create and Communicate the Future of Geoscientific Knowledge"

Geology and Geophysics research enquires into earth materials and earth structures, into earth processes and earth history, and thus is central to the human concerns of earth resources and earth environments. The Discipline has an outstanding record of achievement in a broad range of research fields as evident by consistently high levels of international publications and conference presentations and extensive funding from government agencies. The Discipline enjoys business links with groups such as the minerals and petroleum industries, Primary Industry Resources of South Australian (PIRSA), CSIRO and the SA Museum.
