Individual library, laboratory and/or field projects on facets of geology not covered by existing courses. Field trips may be required. Course previously offered as GEOL 5710.Offered for variable credit, 1-6 credit hours, maximum of 12 credit hours.Prerequisite(s): Consent of instructor.

Focus on the development of scientific inquiry and critical thinking skills needed to evaluate complex relationships among climate, energy production, and the environment. Students will explore causes and consequences of climate change and consider climate change science from alternative perspectives. Same course as GEOG 1022.

Oceanography is an interdisciplinary field incorporating geology, physics, chemistry, and biology. This class will introduce students to oceanic and sedimentary processes, including plate tectonics, oceanic circulation, seawater chemistry, beaches and coastlines, benthic/pelagic sea life, and environmental concerns. Students will also discuss social, political, and economic topics that relate to the ocean.Prerequisite(s): College-level chemistry recommended.
