Description:

4 credits The Geology 101, 102, 103 sequence introduces students to the study of physical and historical geology. The courses fulfill the AAOT science with laboratory requirements for non-science majors. G 101 and 102 can be taken in either order. Students are strongly advised to complete G 101 or G 102 before enrolling in G 103. Sections may offer a field trip, with a fee. Geology 101 explores the geology of Earth's internal structure, how rocks and minerals form, and how plate interactions cause earthquakes, create volcanoes and build mountains. In labs students describe and identify minerals and rocks, use earthquake data, and interpret simple geologic maps and structures. Students may use Geology courses to satisfy the science with laboratory requirement for the AAOT degree.
