Information

The EDMAP program trains the next generation of geologic mappers by providing grant funds to colleges and universities across the U.S. and Puerto Rico. The program, which contributes to national efforts to geologically map the entire U.S., works with universities to help graduate and upper-level undergraduate students gain experience and knowledge in geologic mapping. Dr. Heinzel (UNI - Assistant Prof. of Geology and Science Education) works closely with undergraduate earth science students and the Iowa Geological and Water Survey (Deb Quade and Stephanie Tassier-Surine) to provide Iowans with current geologic/natural resourses information!
