地球与第四纪理学硕士（非论文）

硕士课程包括激动人心的跨学科课程和研究选择，以及为学生提供地质和地球科学方面的深厚背景。该计划强调在实地和实验室中的动手经验学习，并侧重于地球和第四纪在环境地质，地球化学，地球考古学，生物地球化学，海洋学，地貌学，气候学，古气候学，古生态学，古海洋学，树木年代学，生物地理学，古生物学和地球生物学。教职员工还拥有更传统的领域，包括地层学，岩石学，地理水文学，火山学，经济地质，遥感/ GIS和自然地理学方面的专业知识和课程。
The M.S. Program includes exciting interdisciplinary courses and research options as well as providing students with a strong background in geology and the geosciences. The Program emphasizes hands-on, experiential learning in the field and in the lab, and focuses on applied, interdisciplinary research in Earth and Quaternary Sciences in the areas of environmental geology, geochemistry, geoarchaeology, biogeochemistry, oceanography, geomorphology, climatology, paleoclimatology, paleoecology, paleoceanography, dendrochronology, biogeography, plaeolimnology, and geobiology. Faculty members also have expertise and teach courses in the more traditional areas of stratigraphy, petrology, geohydrology, volcanology, economic geology, remote sensing/GIS, and physical geography. The M.S. Program is designed to provide students with the strong background needed to pursue careers with government and private geoscience agencies or to continue graduate studies at the Ph.D. level.
