环境地质科学学士

通过研究环境地质来探索人类与地球环境之间的关系。您将满足我们社会的关键需求，从地下水保护和废物处理到自然灾害的识别和评估。作为一名环境地质学家，您将预测，预防和补救与人类活动或地球动态过程有关的危害，例如海滩侵蚀，地震，洪水，地下水污染，滑坡和火山活动。<br> <br>地质学是对地球及其形成过程的研究。地质学家在实验室和野外工作和研究-自然界就是他们的教室。我们邀请您探索我们的学术课程，教师和学生研究以及其他机会，以了解更多有关代顿大学地质学的信息。
Geology is the study of the Earth, both past and present. It incorporates many aspects of our complex planet including its composition, structure, environment, internal and surficial processes, and the development of life, continents, and oceans through time. Geology plays a critical role in interpreting the Earth's long history of physical and biological changes, finding and managing natural resources, and understanding natural hazards and future environmental change. The geology department offers two programs leading to Bachelor of Science degrees in geology and environmental geosciences. The geology (GEO) major provides basic courses in the geological sciences as well as a range of advanced level classes that allow students to develop courses of study that complement particular interests within the field such as energy and mineral resources, plate tectonics or paleontology.
