MSc Exploration Geophysics 2008-09 – now working as a geophysicist with GETECH

“The MSc Exploration Geophysics opened my eyes to the many applications of geophysics throughout a whole range of disciplines.  Personally, being primarily interested in potential field geophysics but unsure of the workings of the industry, I was really grateful for the insight which I gained while attending this course.  The close links between the University of Leeds and GETECH, a geosciences company specialising in gravity and magnetic studies, ensured the possibility of a positive career development path.  A lot of hard work was needed but, with the dedication of the teaching staff and the camaraderie of the students, the rewards at the end were great.”
