NEW YORK STATE GEOLOGY LICENSE
Geology Bachelor of Science designated as Licensure-Qualifying Program for New York State Geology License at Queens College.
The School of Earth and Environmental Sciences at Queens College is proud to announce that the Geology Bachelor of Science degree has been added as a licensure-qualifying designation and is now listed as a registered program for obtaining the New York State Geology License.
Queens College is currently the only institution in New York City to offer this to students.
This will permit students who graduate with a Bachelor of Science in Geology at Queens College to be eligible to take the exam for the New York State Geology License. Many consulting and governmental jobs in both geology and environmental science now ask prospective employees to have the New York State Professional Geologist title. Contact the geology undergraduate advisors, for more information about this exciting opportunity for Queens College students : Dr. Pekar (Stephen.pekar@qc.cuny.edu) and Dr. Laczniak (dara.laczniak@qc.cuny.edu)

FEATURED CUNY MASTER'S STUDENT
Julia Sandke
Deep-Sea Biodiversity: VIAME and OOI JupyterHub Accelerate Research
This project, led by Dax Soule and Karen Bemis, studies species diversity at the ASHES vent field off Oregon’s coast using archived video from the OOI CamHD collection. Julia Sandke and a team of researchers use VIAME (Video and Image Analytics for a Marine Environment), a machine learning tool, to automate the classification of vent organisms. By integrating VIAME with JupyterHub and Nvidia GPUs, the team speeds up video analysis, enabling them to develop models that predict species patterns, especially after volcanic eruptions. This research aims to improve understanding of hydrothermal vent ecosystems.

School of Earth and Environmental Sciences, QC
This semester, eight peer mentors were divided between the lecture sections of Ensci 99, Ensci 100, and Geol 101. To increase student success and engagement in these classes, they hosted weekly office hours, held exam review sessions, lead supplemental demonstrations, delivered concept re-caps, and so much more. Alongside our peer mentors, our department’s peer advisor has developed projects and coordinated events to improve the career preparedness of and sense of community amongst our students.
