  • 4.00 Credits

    Three hours lecture Two hours laboratory per week. CSU Prerequisite: GEOL 150 C. This is the study of construction of a stratigraphic section through use of thickness measurements, use of the Brunton and alidade instruments, field sampling and note taking, and preparation of geologic samples. The use of the computer for analysis of geologic data is considered. An introduction to engineering geology, soils engineering, and geo-physical surveying for geology technicians is presented.
  • 5.00 Credits

    Eighteen hours lecture and Fourteen hours laboratory per week for 4 weeks. Pass/No Pass/Letter Grade Option CSU, CSU GE This four week course consists of two weeks of classroom preparation in the geology of selected areas of the United States and other countries and two weeks of driving, camping, hiking, mapping and collecting through such parks as Zion, Bryce, Capital Reef, Dinosaur, Grand Canyon, Hawaii Volcanoes and Mt. McKinley.
  • 3.00 Credits

    Three hours lecture per week. UC Credit Limitation/CSU, AA GE, CSU GE, IGETC This course is designed for the non-science major and will integrate the significant principles and concepts of the solid earth, atmosphere, space and hydrospace and relate them to the environment, with special emphasis on resources, wastes and hazards. The perspective will focus on ways in which earth processes generate the varieties of resources useful in humans in the form of metal, non-metals, energy, water, ocean and soil. Hazards such as liquid, solid and radioactive wastes and their effects on environmental deterioration will be studied. Natural hazards such as floods, faults, landslides and earthquakes will be examined. ( The course is not open to students who have completed GEOL 100 C or GEOL 102 C.)
  • 1.00 - 2.00 Credits

    (May be taken for credit 4 times) One hour lecture and Three hours field work per week or equivalent.

    Three hours lecture Three hours laboratory per week. UC/CSU, IGETC Prerequisite: GEOL 102 C and CHEM 107 C. The course is the study of the origin, classification, identification, and description of rocks and minerals, with emphasis upon their crystal structure and chemical and physical properties. A consideration of mineral ores and sources, mining and refining methods, and associated economic factors is included. Laboratory work includes simple chemical identification tests of geological specimens through blowpipe analysis, solution methods, and electrochemical instrumentation techniques.
  • 4.00 Credits

    Three hours lecture Two hours laboratory per week. CSU Prerequisite: GEOL 151 C. This course is a continuation of GEOL 150 C and GEOL 151 C with emphasis on field work, including contact mapping, fault mapping, and development of a complete geologic map. Sample analysis of stratigraphic sections and cross sections will be considered. Project work includes research of geologic resource materials and preparation of a complete geologic report utilizing information and techniques presented in GEOL 150 C and GEOL 151 C. Employment opportunities, job applications and the development of a resume will complete the program.
