Majors : The
Department of Geosciences provides a welcoming home for
undergraduates interested in the study of the earth and
human interaction with the environment. The department offers
majors in geography, geology, and earth science.
The
program in geography emphasizes the earth's land surfaces and people's interaction
with the earth. Geology is concerned with the internal and external processes of
the earth over time. These two programs merge in broad areas
relating to surficial processes, remote sensing, earth resources,
and the application of computers to natural and man-made
phenomena. The earth science degree combines aspects of
both programs.
Requirement checklists for all Geosciences undergraduate programs are listed
below.
