<p>Would a Geology and Geophysics Major be similar to a Geological Engineering major? My school doesn't have geological engineering, so I was wondering if maybe majoring in Geology and Geophysics would be the same in employers' eyes?</p>
<p>Some of the coursework (esp. the first 2 yrs.) would be similar, but the degree would not be the same in most employers’ eyes. An Engineering degree is geared toward design and includes specific coursework (e.g. Statics, Dynamics, Thermo, Fluids).</p>
