Our People and Facilities
The VIU Earth Science Department is made up of a small group of dedicated faculty and staff who are committed to student-centered education. Our small class sizes offer opportunities for lots of student-instructor interaction and individual instruction time.
The Earth Science Department has a lab and a prep room that are dedicated to teaching geology. We also have a large collection of rocks, minerals and fossils, and lots of opportunities to get outside and relate what is taught in the class to the real world.
