May be elected as a departmental concentration program
Students in this program of study earn a Bachelor of Science degree. They receive a broad foundation in natural and physical sciences from which they can launch a professional career in marine and freshwater science. Students are encouraged to tailor their academic programs along the lines of the four options described below.
Prerequisites to Concentration.
- One year of chemistry with labs (CHEM 125/126/130, 210/211).
- One year of physics with labs (PHYSICS 140/141 and 240/241)
- MATH 115 and 116, and one of MATH 214, 215, or 216
- STATS 350
- Introductory Geology course with laboratory (e.g., GEOSCI 116, 119&118, 120 or 201) or an introductory geoscience course without laboratory (GEOSCI 119, 205-206, 284) combined with a laboratory courses (GESOSCI 118 or 207)
- Oceanography - GEOSCI 222/223
Concentration Program.
- Select at least four courses from:
- GEOSCI 449, Marine Geology
- GEOSCI 479, Marine Geochemistry
- GEOSCI 421, Principles of Physical Oceanography
- GEOSCI 452, Cenozoic Stratigraphy and Global Change
- GEOSCI 446, Principles of Paleoclimatology
