Bachelor of Science
The geosciences are interdisciplinary sciences that integrate geography, geology, earth systems science, physics, chemistry, and spatial awareness into the course of study. The program emphasizes the use of geoscience data for their uses in problem solving and establishing policies that support effective resource management, public health and safety, and environmental protection.
The Geosciences (BS) program contains 32 identified courses across 4 requirement categories. The prerequisite data currently includes 9 known course relationships.
Structured catalog requirement categories, credit thresholds, and nested course rules.
