Video playlists

Here are links to a series of different video playlists that will introduce you to our faculty, staff, graduate students, laboratories and facilities, our building, as well as some of the local region. We also have videos that show some of the housing options that our current graduate students are in. Hopefully, these videos and the photos linked above will give you a sense of our Geoscience program, UNR, and the fun that can be had with living in northern Nevada, at the foothills of the Sierra Nevada and western edge of the Basin and Range.
