2.00 Credits
In this course, students will be instructed on how to do field work at a real fossil excavation site. Our expedition will explore a variety of ancient and geologically-important environments of various geologic formations. This course aims to introduce students to paleontological fieldwork and also to teach the basics of North American vertebrate paleontology. Students will learn how to plan and organize an expedition and how to interpret what they have found. Dinosaurs will serve as the course's model organisms. NOTE: Please refer to the appropriate academic catalog for additional course information concerning prerequisites, co-requisites and course restrictions.
