The Faculty of Geosciences at Utrecht University offers a wide spectrum of education and research concerning the geosphere, biosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere and antroposphere.
From its central position in the Utrecht Centre for Geosciences, the Faculty collaborates closely with the Faculties of Physics (Meteorology/Oceanography) and Biology (Biogeology), and with the Netherlands Institute of Applied Earth Sciences (TNO_NITG), which has recently moved on campus. The Faculty is committed to interdisciplinary and cross-institutional collaboration, and plays a key role in the Dutch national research school structure.
In the Netherlands, the Faculty is the largest institute in its field, and has received the highest rating in an international assessment of geosciences in the Netherlands.
