GLY 115: Introductory Geology Laboratory
1.00 Credits
University of Kentucky
This course is designed to cover essential elements of the field of geology through hands-on, laboratory exercises. Starting with basic earth materials, we emphasize observation and data collection to understand the formation of rocks and minerals, and put them in perspective of their plate tectonic origins. Emphasis on application of this knowledge to society (use of geologic resources, geological hazards) is woven throughout the course materials. Laboratory, two hours per week.

GLY 120: Sustainable Planet: The Geology of Natural Resources
3.00 Credits
University of Kentucky
An introduction to the geologic and societal controls that govern the distribution and cost of using geologic resources: minerals, soils, and energy and industrial materials. Topics include the geological processes responsible for forming these resources, controls on their distribution, quality and abundance, economic factors that drive their recovery, and the legal/political arena in which we attempt to utilize them.

GLY 130: Dinosaurs And Disasters
3.00 Credits
University of Kentucky
More than 65 million years ago, dinosaurs and their kin dominated the earth and relegated our mammalian ancestors to positions of unimportance for nearly 155 million years. This course traces the history of dinosaurs from early vertebrate ancestors to their final extinction and surveys the evolutionary, paleogeographic, environmental, and possible extraterrestrial causes for the rise to dominance and sudden fall. Along the way and afterwards, dinosaur interactions with other organisms and the environment, as well as their indirect influence on mammals, particularly on the much later evolution of humankind, will be examined.
