msc applied geology syllabus
The syllabus for the entrance exam for M.Sc Geology at Banaras Hindu University (BHU) typically includes topics such as geomorphology, mineralogy, petrology, structural geology, sedimentology, and economic geology. It is advisable to refer to the official BHU website or the entrance exam brochure for the most updated and detailed syllabus.
Geology is the study of the Earth's physical structure and composition. Pure geology mainly deals with geological theories and principles, while applied geology deals with the practical application of geological knowledge.

Compaction in the context of geology refers to when different rocks have pressure applied on them and the particles become closer together removing fluids, the particles then cement together by minerals that were in the fluids.
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.

the application of geology to many fields for example economical geology, petro geology, enviromental geology this is related to the various human activities therefor it is called applied geology.
Geology is a great field of science to enter and has lots of career potential. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the number of science-related jobs will increase at a rate faster than the national average between now and 2016. Environmental scientists, hydrologists and geoscientists will experience the fastest growth.From a personal perspective, I have found geology to be most rewarding because it is the one field of science that not only involves all the other fields of science (mathematics, biology, chemistry, physics) it also includes business and economics, geography, engineering, and some geologists have even been known to involve philosophy (e.g. Loren Eiseley).I can't answer your question directly about the BS Applied Geology vs. BS Geology. I would probably guess the BS Geology is better, but that depends on the program and the school. It also depends on what country you live in, as these program names do not mean the same thing in all areas of the world. To answer the question you should consider what area of geology appeals to you the most. I work in the oil industry and cannot say I have ever met anyone with an Applied Geology degree, but most geologists in the oil industry have at least a Master's Degree (and truthfully we don't always make any distinction like that). Some Applied Geology programs seem to be aimed at environmental geology, engineering geology, or other specializations while other schools have separate programs for those and treat the applied geology as a generalist program. Whatever gives you the widest range of class topics is what will give you the widest range of exposure to different things.You've got lots of choices for geology. There is environmental geology, hydrogeology, engineering geology, geophysics (often a distinct field) mining geology, petroleum geology, and more. One of my former classmates works in the field of planetary geology and spends her time researching Venus. The pay level is very different for different fields, and the work can be very different. Petroleum and mining geologists and geophysicists are currently the highest paid and are likely to remain in high demand as the work force in both fields is mostly close to retirement, and oil, natural gas, and other natural resources are always going to be in demand. After all, if you can't grow it, you have to mine it.Source(s):geologist
