Sigma Gamma Epsilon is a national geoscience honor society. Beta Zeta chapter is made up of a combination of undergraduate and graduate students at the University of North Dakota. Although most of our members are in the Department of Geology and Geological Engineering, the organization is open to any student who meets minimum coursework (not limited to geology courses) and academic record requirements and has an interest in the geosciences.
