The Department is committed to providing hands-on experience in hydrogeologic techniques to complement the broad theoretical background presented in the classroom. We have a wide range of field equipment and its use is an integral part of many graduate courses and research. Our easily-accessible, off campus groundwater well field provides an outdoor laboratory for teaching hydrogeologic techniques. Follow one of the links below for more details on the field equipment.
