Space exploration may sound like the stuff of science fiction, but for planetary scientists, it’s real and it’s happening right now. Marietta College’s Planetary Science major is ideal for students interested in careers with NASA or other space exploration agencies or who are curious about the origins and evolution of our solar systems and its planets, life, and all other matter.

Whether your major is science-based or not science-based, the Energy Systems Studies minor will expand your knowledge of all sources of energy so you can understand the energy industry, its impact on the environment and the social and economic aspects it has at the global level.
