  • 3.00 Credits

    (3 sem. hrs.) Study of geological materials and processes responsible for the formation and evolution of landscapes found in the nation's parks and monuments. Survey of parks from each U.S. physiographic province. Students electing this course to meet their General Education requirement for laboratory science must take both GEO104 and GEO104L in the same semester. (Spring of Odd-Even years)
  • 1.00 Credits

    (1 sem. hrs.) This course is the lab complement to GEO104 Geology of National Parks. The weekly exercises allow students to more fully explore important concepts discussed in lecture and provide first-hand experience in topographic and geologic map-reading. One 2-hour lab each week. (Spring of Odd-Even years) PREREQUISITES: Laboratory must be taken concurrently with GEO104.
  • 3.00 Credits

    ( 3 sem. hrs.) A one-semester course for the liberal arts student desiring introduction to world resources. No previous science background is assumed. Topics will include renewable and non-renewable energy sources, water, non-fuel minerals, economic and political issues and environmental issues.
  • 3.00 Credits

    (3 sem. hrs.) A study of local and worldwide weather. Topics include atmospheric measurements, weather observation, weather prediction, global energy budgets, climate patterns, climate change, and the rights and responsibilities of a citizen of planet earth concerning the atmosphere. (e.g. the greenhouse effect and ozone layer depletion).
  • 3.00 Credits

    (3 sem. hrs.) Study of the relationships between humans, environment and geology. Ecosystems, geologic hazards, pollution, energy sources and the human interactions with the environment are stressed. Previous course in geology is recommended.
  • 1.00 - 2.00 Credits

    (1-2 sem. hrs.) Geology is studied by living and working in the natural environment. Students will complete exercises, record observations, and make presentations in the field. Travel and field studies will emphasize physiographic regions dissimilar to Ohio. Participation during a field excursion earns one hour, while design and completion of advanced studies can be pursued for an additional credit. (Fee required for participation) PREREQUISITES: One Geology course and permission of the instructor.

  • 4.00 Credits

    (4 sem. hrs.) Surficial earth process including weathering, erosion and soil formation are examined to develop an understanding of landscape evolution within the the context of climate. The course will be lecture-based with a field component. Course fee required for transportation. Students with credit for GEO211 will not also receive credit for GEO309. (Fall of odd-even years) PREREQUISITES: GEO101, GEO101L
  • 1.00 - 3.00 Credits

    (1-3 sem. hrs.) For students with special interests in independent study beyond the scope of existing courses or who wish to make use of Heidelberg's special resources, including library, museum, and surrounding geological terrain. Potential topics for study include earth history, mineralogy, petrology, and paleontology. PREREQUISITES: One GEO course and permission of the instructor.
