Volcanology

 Volcanology

is the study of volcanoes, lava, magma and related geological, geophysical and geochemical phenomena. The term volcanology is derived from the Latin word vulcan. Vulcan was the ancient Roman god of fire.

 

To become a volcanologist, you need to start with an undergraduate degree in earth science, geology, chemistry or physics.

 

In general, jobs in volcanology are difficult to find. This is because funding is limited and there are typically many people applying to the few jobs that are available.
