96 CALIFORNIA INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY the basis for advanced work and research in the geological sciences. Students who complete the Fifth-Year Course in Geology are prepared for geological positions with oil and mining companies and on government and state geological surveys, but further . graduate work (leading to the Doctor's degree) is very desirable for those who are preparing themselves for university and museum positions in geology and paleontology and for service as professional geologists. OPPORTUNITIES FOR RESEARCH IN GEOLOGY AND PALEONTOLOGY \Vithin convenient reach of Pasadena occurs an almost unrivaled variety of rock types, geologic structures, and physiographic forms. Field studies can be conducted comfortably throughout the entire year, and this constitutes an important part of the department program. Stratigraphic and faunal studies may be pursued in the Cenozoic and Mesozoic sedimentary rocks of the Southern Coast Ranges, in which oil fields are located, and in the Mojave Desert region. Thick sections of Paleozoic sediments in southeastern California remain almost unexplored. oStructural and physiographic problems in the Coast and Basin Ranges and along the coastal front await critical investigation and frequently involve an interpretation of folding and faulting on a large scale. The presence of many productive oil fields, of large Portland Cement plants, and of gem-producing districts in Southern California afford exceptional opportunities to students interested in economic geology. Moreover, the gold, silver, quicksilver, and copper deposits of the Sierra Nevada and Coast Ranges of California are within comparatively easy reach, and the varied metalliferous deposits of Arizona and Southern Nevada are also available for visit and research. Excellent opportunities are available for studies in physical and geological seismology. A fully equipped Seismological Re-
BALCH GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE GEOLOGICAL SCIENCES 97 search Laboratory is situated on a site west of the Arroyo Seco in Pasadena. The laboratory is largely devoted to researches conducted by the Carnegie Institution of Washington, but graduate students in the Division of Geology and Paleontology will be received in the laboratory for the purpose of taking part in the researches or of becoming acquainted with seismological methods. Collections available from many invertebrate and vertebrate faunal horizons in the sedimentary record of western North America permit the student interested in paleontology to secure an intimate knowledge of the history of life. Attractive field and laboratory problems are presented by the sequence, correlation, and ecologic relationships of western faunas, their significance in an interpretation of geologic history, and by the structure, relationships, and evolution of specific groups of fossil organisms. TEACHING AND RESEARCH FELLOWSHIPS Fellowships are available for properly qualified students who desire to pursue advanced work in geology and paleontology, as in other branches of science; see page 118.
