Choosing a Great Geophysics & Seismology School for Your Doctor's Degree
Your choice of geophysics & seismology for getting your doctor's degree school matters. Important measures of a quality geophysics program can vary widely even among the top schools. When choosing a school we recommend considering some of the following factors:
Quality Overall Is Important
A school that excels in educating for a particular major and degree level must be a great school overall as well. To take this into account we consider a college's overall Best Colleges for a Doctor's Degree ranking which itself looks at a collection of different factors like degree completion, educational resources, student body caliber and post-graduation earnings for the school as a whole.
Other Factors We Consider
The metrics below are just some of the other metrics that we use to determine our rankings.
Major Focus - How much a school focuses on geophysics & seismology students vs. other majors.
Major Demand - The number of geophysics & seismology students who choose to seek a doctor's degree at the school.
Educational Resources - How many resources are allocated to students. These resources may include educational expenditures per student, number of students per instructor, and graduation rate among other things.
Accreditation - Whether a school is regionally accredited and/or accredited by a recognized geophysics & seismology related body.
Our complete ranking methodology documents in more detail how we consider these factors to identify the best schools for geophysics & seismology students working on their doctor's degree.

Insufficient Data for the Rocky Mountains Region
As a result of missing data, we couldn't provide you with the geophysics & seismology quality ranking. This is typically due to there not being enough schools in the Rocky Mountains Region that both offer geophysics & seismology and provided enough information for us to do a sufficient analysis.
