Marine Geology and Geophysics studies the physical and chemical processes that shape the structure and evolution of ocean basins and their margins. The programme leads to a Doctor of Science (ScD) or Doctor of Philosophy (PhD), awarded by the student's MIT home department jointly with Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution as a single document issued by both institutions.
Faculty: School of Science | Department: Earth, Atmospheric, and Planetary Sciences (EAPS), jointly with Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution | Study mode: full-time | Location: Cambridge, MA, United States
Research areas include micropaleontology, paleoceanography, petrology and volcanic processes, seismology, gravity, magnetics, heat flow, sediment dynamics and isotope geology. Students register at MIT and WHOI at the same time, have advisors at both, take subjects and seminars at both institutions (with Harvard cross-registration available) and may join oceanographic cruises.
MIT-WHOI Joint Program (all disciplines): GRE not required but may be submitted. Three letters of recommendation. Statement of objectives (1.5 to 2.5 pages, single-spaced) covering reasons for graduate study, research interests and experience, and fit with the Joint Program. Resume and unofficial transcripts from all institutions attended, with a description of each grading system. English proficiency required only for applicants without primary or secondary schooling in English: TOEFL iBT 100, IELTS 7.0, Cambridge C1/C2 185, or Duolingo 130 (scores within two years; waivers possible; a lower score leads to a conditional offer). Deadline: December 1 (anticipated) for doctoral applicants, 11:59 PM Eastern; October 1 for U.S. Naval officers.
Requirements published at program group level.
