地质科学学士

地质学是一门多元化的学科，它融合了物理学，化学，生物学和自然历史的各个方面，试图解决与地球有关的问题。地学家为社会提供解决问题的基本信息，并为资源管理，环境保护，公共卫生，安全和福利制定政策。地质学学士学位（BS）旨在为学生提供广泛的地质背景知识，并为他们提供有关地球材料，结构地质学和构造学的高级准备。该课程的完成使学生为从事地质学的各种职业或地质学的研究生工作做好准备。对于准备成为专业地质学家，打算进入该行业或在学位课程完成后就读研究生课程的学生，建议使用BS。
A geoscientist is someone who studies the Earth's physical makeup and history. Geology is the science that provides the key to finding new sources of useful Earth materials and to understanding Earth processes that affect our lives. Geoscientists provide basic information to society for solving problems and establishing policy for resource management, environmental protection, public health, safety and welfare.<br><br>Geoscientists are concerned about the Earth. How extensive is the global warming trend How and where should we dispose industrial wastes How can we fill society's growing demands for energy and conserve natural resources for future generations<br><br>Geoscientists enjoy the Earth. It is an outdoor laboratory filled with opportunities to observe Earth processes in action.
