Professor, Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences

Biography
David Walker received his B.A. at Oberlin College, where he studied geology.  While studying mining at Harvard, his interests turned to lunar rocks and he went on to earn his MA and PhD in experimental petrology.  In his research he investigates the magmatic processes that have resulted in differentiation of the earth's core, mantle and crust and similar differentiation of other planets.  This work also relates to the synthesis of new materials such as high-temperature superconductors.
