Course programme
Mineralogists analyse rocks and minerals to extract gems and precious stones. They work with industries; conduct surveys and studies in geology. They also analyse minerals and study their formation and composition.
Metallurgists could be qualified in chemical, physical and mechanical specialisations. The chemical metallurgist does the refining and extracting of the metal. The physical metallurgist studies the properties of the metal and the process that it needs to undergo before the final product stage is reached. The mechanical metallurgist takes care of the equipment needed for processes like casting, forging etc.
Features:
For a career in mining, an engineering diploma or degree is necessary. M.Tech courses are available in mineral engineering, mining exploration, mineral machinery and mine planning. In addition to this a certificate of competency from the mine manager or surveyor is also necessary.

Petroleum geology
Petroleum geologists explore and detect the presence of crude oil and natural gas underground and under water. They conduct tests to confirm the presence of oil and help engineers set up oilrigs.
Engineering geology
Engineering geologists propose materials best suited for the construction of large scale projects like dams, bridges, tunnels, roadways and railway lines. They survey the area and ensure that it is safe from landslides and risks of earthquake and other natural hazards.
Geological research
Teaching the subject, and contributing through research to the field, publishing books and articles based on the research, supervising students pursuing doctorate courses in geology is what geological research involves. A postgraduate in geology who has cleared the NET (National Eligibility Test) conducted by the UGC is eligible for the post of a lecturer.
The other fields of specialisation include paleontology, structural geology, geomorphology, historic geology and others.
