地球科学学士学位

该学士学位课程是为有兴趣在与地球或环境科学，地质学，地球化学或地球物理学相关领域从事研究生工作或工作的学生而设计的。它提供了地球和环境科学所需的计算，分析和观测技能的基本基础。该计划是跨学科的，强调化学，物理和数学的整合以研究地球。地球科学学士学位课程要求完成124个学时的课程，相当于四年的全日制学习时间。其中，ERTH课程要求48个学分，其中包括一个具有实验室的入门级地质课程，十个非入门级ERTH课程，两个学分的研究研讨会以及十一个ERTH选修课的学分。在本科生顾问的建议和同意下，其他自然科学，数学或工
This BS degree is designed for students interested in pursuing graduate work or employment in areas related to Earth or Environmental Sciences, geology, geochemistry or geophysics. It provides the essential grounding in computational, analytical, and observational skills needed in the earth and environmental sciences. The program is interdisciplinary, emphasizing the integration of chemistry, physics, and mathematics to studying the Earth. The BS in Earth Sciences requires completion of 124 credit hours of coursework, the equivalent of four years of full-time study. Of this, 48 credits are required in the ERTH curriculum, including one introductory level geology course with a lab, ten non-introductory level ERTH courses, a two-credit research seminar, and eleven credits of ERTH electives. With advice and consent of an undergraduate advisor, courses in other natural sciences, mathematics, or engineering can also be taken as electives. A mainland summer field course is an elective, which students are strongly encouraged to take. An undergraduate thesis is also encouraged but not required. The required supporting science classes (28-29 credits) include physics, chemistry, biological science, and college calculus, and should be taken as early as possible.
