    The course will entail site investigation, mapping,sample collection, and the analysis of both large and small scale geological outcrops. The course will explore the impacts of the Geosciences upon many disciplines. This is an opportunity to join an international team of scientists who are working on the geology and vertebrate fossils at active paleontolgy research sites.
  • 1.00 - 4.00 Credits

    A student will gain professional geologic experience with an internship at a private geologic firm or governmental agency. A faculty advisor will be appointed to award the grade received. The student will make all internship arrangements, and a written proposal is required before the start of the internship. A report will be required upon completion of the internship. One hour of credit will be awarded for each 45 hours completed with a maximum of four credits awarded. NOTE: Please refer to the appropriate academic catalog for additional course information concerning prerequisites, co-requisites and course restrictions..
  • 1.00 - 4.00 Credits

    This course will be used to offer an examination of topics in geology at the advanced level in which a regular course is not offered. Course number may be repeated but for different course content. NOTE: Please refer to the appropriate academic catalog for additional course information concerning prerequisites, co-requisites and course restrictions.. Prerequisite:    ( GEOL 101 OR GEOL 103 OR HONS 155 ) AND ( GEOL 101L OR GEOL 103L OR HONS 155L ) AND ( GEOL 105 OR HONS 156 ) AND ( GEOL 105L OR HONS 156L )

  • 0.00 Credits

    A student works under faculty supervision to learn a research method, to explore possible resecrch topics, or to continue an ongoing study. The faculty member helps the student to determine the course goals and objectives, and supervises the execution of the project. The student will provide a written report to the faculty at the end of the semester. Students will receive a grade of "S' (satisfactory) or "U" (unsatisfactory) for the course. NOTE: Please refer to the appropriate academic catalog for additional course information concerning prerequisites, co-requisites and course restrictions.

  • 4.00 Credits

    The course introduces the concepts and components of a geographic information system (GIS) and Remote Sensing (RS) by teaching the essential skills using Google Earth, ArcGIS online, ArcGIS desktop and image processing software packages. Students will understand the operational processes of spatial data acquisition, metadata development, geodatabase design, GIS application development, cartographic mapping and dynamic visualization, and GIS implementation. Students will also use common open source tools, as well as image processing and global positioning systems (GPS). NOTE: Please refer to the appropriate academic catalog for additional course information concerning prerequisites, co-requisites and course restrictions. Corequisite:    GEOL 402L

    Laboratory course which accompanies GEOL 402. Corequisite:    GEOL 402
  • 3.00 Credits

    Global tectonics has revolutionized the earth sciences. This new model of planetary tectonic processes, which has been developed only in the last 20 years, provides an explanation of a wide variety of geologic processes over a wide range scale, with a degree of accuracy unsurpassed by any previous theory. Lectures three hours per week. NOTE: Please refer to the appropriate academic catalog for additional course information concerning prerequisites, co-requisites and course restrictions.. Prerequisite:    ( GEOL 101 OR GEOL 103 OR HONS 155 ) AND ( GEOL 101L OR GEOL 103L OR HONS 155L ) AND ( GEOL 105 OR HONS 156 ) AND ( GEOL 105L OR HONS 156L ) AND GEOL 272 AND GEOL 352
