He received his Bachelor's degree in Mining Engineering from Columbia University in 1903 and went on to earn his Master's degree in Geology from the same institution in 1905. Kerr's interest in mineralogy began during his graduate studies, and he subsequently worked as a mineralogist at the United States Geological Survey (USGS). His work at the USGS laid the foundation for his future research in optical mineralogy. Optical Mineralogy Paul F Kerr.pdf
