Abstract
The DEEP2 Galaxy Redshift Survey is now well underway, having already measured the redshifts to ~5600 galaxies in its first season of observations. Here I briefly review the survey itself, before discussing in more detail some of the initial science results to have recently appeared in the literature. In particular, the potential of the survey to characterize galaxy evolution is discussed, with special emphasis on the role of spectral classification. Some of the applications of this classification, namely to the quantification of galaxy clustering and the measurement of galaxy environments are also discussed here.
