项目概述
B的要求.A. 学位 are designed for students interested in applying a general understanding of the Earth and Environmental Geosciences to such fields as education, 图书馆学, technical writing or other areas where a general knowledge of earth sciences is desired.
The program begins with an introductory geology course, most often GEOL 1010 -地球是如何工作的. 然而, several other introductory-level courses can substitute with students entering the major after taking such diverse classes as GEOL 1200 -移动地球, geol1350 -自然灾害, and GEOL 2310 -水与污染. (完整列表如下). Entering students who have not taken GEOL 1010 or GEOL 2830 - 地质 for Engineers complete GEOL 2020 - Introductory 地质 Lab, 一个1学分的实验课程.
There are six core courses in addition to the introductory course. Some are taken as a student's schedule allows, others form a sequence and must be taken consecutively. Many of the courses include a lab. Most classes take one or more day- or weekend-long field trips to learn geology in the field.
Students must take one of two options. They may take two specialized courses in rocks, 矿物质, and their formation; or, an oceanography course plus an earth materials courses. The choice typically reflects a student's interests and career aspirations.
One 4000-level elective geology course is required in addition to the core and specialized classes.
Students must take a TIER III course, two of which are GEOL 4080 and GEOL 4290. The former focuses on the interconnected workings of planetary systems. The latter focuses on modeling the flow of contaminants in groundwater.
职业和研究生院
A 学位 in 地质 sciences prepares graduates for a variety of career opportunities. 毕业后, students can pursue positions with 雇主 in the petroleum industry, 状态, 以及国家政府机构, 研究实验室, 州公路部门, 矿业公司, 土木工程公司, 测量公司, 咨询公司, 博物馆, 公立和私立K-12学校, 高等教育机构, 等.
核心知识在B.A. program can serve as a springboard to more advanced work in 地质 sciences. B.A. graduates electing to conduct graduate studies in 地质 sciences will need to make up deficiencies in geology and other sciences to bring their background up to the level of a B.S. 学位.
