We use a Galerkin method to compute the eigenfunctions and eigenperiods of some of the Earths spheroidal and toroidal modes. The boundary conditions are treated using a Tau method. We show that for a realistic Earth model the difference between the computed and observed periods is less than 1.4%. We conclude that a Galerkin method may be an effective tool for the studies of the Earth's normal modes.
