Alumni and Giving
The Department of Geology has extremely active alumni, whose support we greatly appreciate!
Alumni Information
Our Alumni Advisory Council is one of the largest and most active at K-State. The council meets each fall on campus. This meeting not only provides the alumni a chance to reconnect with friends but also an invaluable opportunity for students and faculty to learn more about current trends in geoscience careers and how our program can adjust to evolving needs. If you are interested in getting involved in the council, please let us know!
Department history
The Geology Department was founded in 1946 but geology courses have been offered at Kansas State University since 1866. Read more about our department's long and rich history.
New geosciences building
We are actively raising funds for a new geosciences facility. We are excited about the proposed facility, what it could mean for our ability to train future geoscientists, and the progress we have made so far! Details about the facility and our fundraising efforts are available here.
