地质科学学士

从动态，危险的自然过程到环境和地理变化，地质都关系到地球的结构和组成，以及随着时间的推移而形成地球的过程。需要地质学家来定位从地下水到地热能再到碳氢化合物的资源。需要专家来预测，预防和补救地质灾害，例如海滩侵蚀，地震和洪水。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。
Geologists study the Earth's materials, structures and processes, and how they have changed over the 4.6 billion years of the Earth's history. In doing so, geologists address some of society's most important problems, such as finding energy, water and mineral resources, environmental pollution and its prevention, and natural hazards such as landslides, volcanoes and earthquakes.<br><br>Majors gain hands-on experience in Geology Field Camp, which takes place in New Zealand and Colorado. All upper-level courses have extensive field components taking place in the U.S. and faculty share the opportunity with students to conduct field-based research around the world in places like Nepal, China, Ethiopia, Europe and South America.
