Zusammenfassung:The Department of Geological Sciences at New Mexico State University (NMSU) is fairly young compared to most academic geology departments in the United States. However, the history behind the department goes back one hundred and thirty years and is complex. The purpose of this special publication is to document the important details behind the founding of the department and to describe the NMSU geology program’s evolution and growth to 2015. The program’s history is conveniently divided into three administrative phases. Phase I comprises the first 55 years, during which the program’s activities were managed by one or two regular academic departments of the University. In the Earth Sciences phase, the geology program was administered as a division, along with one or two other divisions in the same department. In its third phase, the geology program became a regular academic department within the College of Arts and Sciences, its current status.
