-
0.00 Credits
This is the laboratory portion of ENVG 10110.
-
3.00 Credits
This course introduces the student to Earth processes, and focuses on how these processes affect people, and how people affect these processes. The course explores the interactions between Earth?s biosphere, geosphere, atmosphere, and hydrosphere, with the objective of demonstrating how our physical environment is controlled by geological, biological, and human forces.
-
4.00 Credits
An introduction to the Earth, its processes, composition, evolution, and structure. The course introduces the student to mineralogy, petrology, structural geology, oceanography, surficial processes, geophysics, environmental geology, and planetology. Lecture and laboratory meetings.
-
4.00 Credits
This course introduces the student to the concept of geologic time, absolute and relative age-dating, Earth processes and features through time, and the major features of evolution and distribution of fossils. Lecture and laboratory meetings. One-day field trip is required.
-
4.00 Credits
Crystallography and mineral optics: physical and chemical mineralogy--its application to mineral identification in hand-specimen and using the petrographic microscope.
-
4.00 Credits
Origin and identification of igneous and metamorphic rocks within a plate tectonic framework. Geochemistry and petrography are used to investigate mineral equilibria, magma generation and crystallization, pressure and temperatures of deformation, and the interior of the Earth.

-
3.00 Credits
This course will examine the evolution of our Solar System and the geology of planetary bodies, including Mercury, Venus, the Moon, Mars, asteroids, the icy moons of Jupiter, and Saturn. Emphasis will be on comparing geologic processes on these bodies to processes on Earth, results from past, current, and upcoming NASA missions, and the future of human and robotic exploration of space.
