Structural geology is usually applied in areas where it is necessary to understand the in-situ stress state and deformational history (both rheological meaning ductile deformation such as folding and tectonic or brittle deformations such as faulting and jointing) of a rockmass.

Some sub-areas or sub-branches of geology include mineralogy (study of minerals), petrology (study of rocks), sedimentology (study of sedimentary rocks), structural geology (study of rock deformation and tectonics), and geochemistry (study of the chemical composition of rocks).
