SCEC Undergraduate study in Earthquake Information Technology

Numerical modeling of plate tectonics and mantle convection

Prof. Thorsten Becker's group studies mantle convection and plate tectonics using large scale numerical modeling at USC's HPCC center. We invite undergraduates to join us for their senior thesis research and encourage them to check out our research pages at http://geodynamics.usc.edu/~becker for information about past projects. Undergraduates with majors in Earth Sciences, Physics, Engineering, Compute Science and Applied Math are all encouraged to contact Thorsten Becker at twb@usc.edu for more information on current research projects. Good earth science course preparation would be GEOL440 and GEOL534.
