A graduate program in hydrogeology is described, in which the field is defined as encompassing the whole range of processes operating in water and water‐mineral mixtures at and near the earth's surface. The interdisciplinary character of this training is insured by requiring both a minor from another department and course work in other sub‐disciplines of hydrogeology in addition to the one in which the thesis is carried out. The importance of nonscientific aspects of hydrogeology is recognized by allowing for minors in fields such as economics and business administration.
