Wits Geosciences
The Wits School of Geosciences is the the largest and most diverse academic Earth Science institution in Africa, with courses in Geology, Geochemistry, Geophysics, Palaeontology, Palaeoanthropology, Geochronology, Environmental Science, Atmospheric Science, Hydrogeology, Economic Geology, and Exploration and Mining Geoscience. In many of these fields, Wits is the main (and in some cases, sole) centre of study in Africa and South Africa.
This channel was started on the landmark 110th anniversary of the School's founding and will document all the birthday celebrations in 2014 as well as the weekly Geotalks which form an important part of the School's calendar.
