地质学学士

地质学是对地球及其运作方式的科学研究。您将了解我们的星球及其生命形式是如何随着时间而改变的。训练有素的地质学家可以帮助国家和世界规划未来的环保和经济路线。您将在户外花费大量时间作为地质专业的学生，​​因为南加州独特的地质特征中的广泛野外调查将构成您学习的很大一部分。您的课程将使您熟悉地质学标准子学科中的最新发展和技术。这些包括矿物学，岩石学，古生物学，结构地质学，地层学和沉积学。加利福尼亚路德大学的地质学系为有兴趣探索能源和经济资源，分析地质灾害和减轻人类对环境影响的学生提供具有挑战性的课程。该计划强调通
Geology is the scientific study of the Earth and how it works. You'll learn how our planet and its life forms have changed through time. Well-trained geologists can help the nation and the world chart an environmentally and economically sound course into the future. You'll spend a lot of time outdoors as a geology major, as extensive fieldwork among Southern California's unique geological features will make up a large part of your learning. Your courses will familiarize you with current developments and techniques within the standard subdisciplines of geology. These include mineralogy, petrology, paleontology, structural geology, stratigraphy and sedimentology. California Lutheran University's Geology Department offers a challenging curriculum for students who are interested in exploring for energy and economic resources, analyzing geologic hazards and mitigating the human impact on the environment. The program emphasizes learning through course work, as well as through extensive fieldwork. The department works closely with the other related disciplines of chemistry, physics, biology, mathematics and geography. Through their studies and research projects, Cal Lutheran geology majors will learn how the Earth's processes and life have changed over time.
