Description:

(3 Hours) The philosophy of this course is that every college student, not just the elite few planning science careers, must have an understanding of scientific principles, especially in view of the exploding impact of technological developments on routine, daily endeavors. We will examine Earth's physical environ- ment using scientific methods and learn to objectively evalu- ate our impact on our environment. We will cover Earth's composition and evolution, physical processes which shape our planet, its resources and how we interact with the physical processes which shape our planet, its resources and how we interact with the Earth. To enhance your understanding of geology, we will take several field trips.
