Similarly, Coal India, Mineral Exploration Authority, Oil & Natural Gas Corporation, Hindustan Zinc and several other organizations engaged in mineral explorations utilize the services of Geologists; one can also join academics by pursuing a PhD or M.Phil in Geology and passing the National Education Test (NET) Conducted by UGC. There are Several Universities providing Geology as a degree, however, it would be difficult to find colleges specifically in Nashik, few of the Universities providing Geology courses are: Chaudhary Charan Singh University, Benaras Hindu University, Aligarh Muslim University, Osmania University, Universityof Madras, Bangalore University etc. Hope this will be of help. Feel free to put up more queries In case your query is resolved please close this question by choosing it as a “best answer” or pressing the “thumbs up” icon. Thanks, Pooja
