Students and Volunteers. The Paleontology Division has students and volunteers that help with fossil preparation, collections care, casting, and other activities.  For students in Geosciences or Biosciences, the collections may also serve as a basis for research.  As one of the academic divisions at the Museum of Texas Tech University, the Paleontology Division also serves graduate students in the Museum Science program with a wide variety of opportunities for hands-on experience with natural science collections.
