Earth, Environmental and Planetary Sciences at Brown University

The Department of Earth, Environmental and Planetary Sciences (DEEPS) integrates teaching and research to investigate fundamental phenomena affecting the Earth and planets. Our students engage in hands-on learning, in collaboration with DEEPS faculty, to explore natural hazards, global climate, and planetary bodies.

This year, DEEPS undergraduates traveled to Utah for the annual Spring Break Field Trip. Their geologic journey included the grandeur of Zion National Park, the unique hoodoos of Bryce Canyon National Park, the enigmatic splendor of Escalante Petrified Forest, and much more. Enjoy these photos from their exciting and educational adventure!
