The geology curriculum gives students an understanding of Earth history, the processes that shape our dynamic planet, and a geologic perspective on how to make human interactions with the planet clean, safe, and sustainable. The Bachelor of Science degree is designed for individuals who wish to pursue a career in geology, seek professional licensure, and/or pursue a graduate degree in geology. Students in this degree program must complete 33 credits of required core courses, five credits of a capstone experience, five credits of electives, and 23-24 credits of cognate sciences (typically a year of chemistry, calculus, and physics).
