GEOL 1470: ENVIRONMENTAL GEOLOGY
4.00 Credits
Central Wyoming College
Environmental geology is the study of the interactions between humans and their surface or near-surface geologic environment: rocks, water, air, soil, life. Humans are impacted by Earth processes, and by their activities, have an impact on Earth. Using physical geologic principles (rocks, minerals and plate tectonics) as a foundation for the study of these environmental interactions, this course will explore issues relating to natural hazards such as earthquakes, volcanoes, floods, and mass movement; natural resources including water, soil and energy; climate change; human population; pollution and environmental policies. Laboratory exercises will apply geologic principles to environmental problems. Field trip required. (3 lect., 3 lab) LSCI

GEOL 2000: GEOCHEMICAL CYCLES AND THE EARTH SYSTEM
4.00 Credits
Central Wyoming College
This course introduces the Earth system: the interactions of the lithosphere, the hydrosphere, the biosphere and the atmosphere. Emphasis is on global change, the formation and evolution of Earth along with its life, the solar system, plate tectonics and rock associations, mineral chemistry, and biogeochemical cycles. Field trip required. Team or independent research project required. Prerequisites: Completion of any 1000 level CHEM, and any 1000-level GEOL or any 1000-level BIOL. (3 lect., 3 lab)

GEOL 2030: INTRODUCTION TO MINERALOGY & PETROLOGY
5.00 Credits
Central Wyoming College
The course is an introduction to the identification and occurrence of minerals and rocks. Mineral identification includes crystallography, crystal chemistry and physical properties in hand-sample. Mineral classification is placed in the context of the three major rock types in which they occur: igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic. Hand specimen identification of rocks is based on mineral composition and texture, and is related to the tectonic environment in which they are found. Field trip(s) required. Prerequisites: Completion of or concurrent enrollment in CHEM 1000 or CHEM-1020. Completion of GEOL 1100 or GEOL 1470 is highly recommended. (3 lect. 4 lab)

GEOL 2200: GEOLOGIC FIELD EXCURSION:
1.00 Credits
Central Wyoming College
Field excursions will be taken to study the geology of specific areas such as the Black Hills, Central Colorado, Death Valley, Colorado Plateau, Hawaii, Central America, or others. Topics will include rock types, tectonics, geologic time, stratigraphy and surface processes. Participants must be in good physical condition and we willing to live in sometimes primitive conditions. Field excursions will include several miles of on-foot exploration. Separate field trip fees will apply. (Offered only when sufficient demand) Prerequisite: Completion of GEOL 1100 recommended but not required. (1-3 lect.)
