地质科学学士

地质学专业为多样化的专业地球科学职业提供严格的学术和实践基础，包括私营和公共部门的水，能源，矿产和其他自然资源，地质灾害，监管管理和教育。该专业还提供了扎实的科学和通识教育背景，可为随后在水文学，地球物理，环境地质，经济地质，资源管理，公共政策以及许多其他领域的专业毕业生提供培训。地质课程在通识教育的更广泛框架内涵盖了强大的地球科学教育。重点放在将科罗拉多洛矶山脉和其他地区的野外研究与校园教室和实验室工作相结合。除了获得扎实的地球科学核心知识外，学生还完成了数学，物理科学，传播和人文科学方面的大量课程，从
The Major in Geology provides an academic and practical basis for diverse professional Earth science, environmental, and other careers. Career paths include private and public sector water, energy, mineral, and other natural resources, geologic hazards, environmental management, and education. The major provides a quantitative science and general education preparation for graduate studies, including hydrology, geophysics, environmental science, economic geology, resources management, public policy, and many other areas.<br><br>The curriculum encompasses a strong geosciences core, and includes integrating field studies in the Colorado Rocky Mountains and elsewhere with extensive on-campus classroom and laboratory studies. Students complete courses in mathematics, physical sciences, communications, and the liberal arts to develop effective quantitative, decision making, and communications skills. Four concentrations are offered to allow focus on specialized career interests: Geology, Environmental Geology, Geophysics, and Hydrogeology.
