Printer Friendly Course Descriptions An analysis of the physical geographic environment including the globe, the atmosphere and ocean, climate, soils, vegetation, and landform. Positive and negative interaction of human beings with these aspects of the environment is examined where appropriate. The basic principles of this course are embodied in the rock and hydrologic cycles. It examines the igneous, metamorphic, sedimentary, tectonic, and weathering systems of the rock cycle; and the runoff, glacial, ocean, groundwater, and atmospheric systems of the hydrologic cycle. A laboratory component includes one or more field trips to sites where geological phenomena can be viewed.

Trop A major in geology will provide the necessary background for those who expect to pursue graduate degrees in geology, environmental geology, hydrogeology, geochemistry, and other areas of geology. It also can provide experience in critical, analytical thinking and contribute to a liberal education, even if the graduate decides not to pursue a professional career in the geosciences. Recent graduates have been accepted into some of the best geology graduate programs in the nation. Other graduates use their general geologic knowledge, as well as their experience in areas such as hydrogeology, environmental geophysics and GIS, to obtain employment in rapidly expanding fields of environmental geoscience. At Bucknell, one can major in either geology or environmental geology, and each of these is available in both bachelor of arts and bachelor of science degree programs. These four tracks are united in having a common core of six courses in geology (GEOL 103*, 104, 201, 210, 214, 217). A bachelor of science track is appropriate for students who have made a decision that they will pursue a graduate degree in one of the geosciences or begin a career in a geologic/environmental profession. Students who elect a bachelor of arts track seek greater curricular flexibility allowing for a second major or a minor. Bachelor of arts students have attended graduate school or pursued careers in environmental law or policy, education, business, medicine, and science writing.

Although the fields are complementary and only a single undergraduate major is available, geologists and geophysicists often have different skills and interests. The student of geophysics is interested in developing a quantitative understanding of the structure and dynamics of the earth's interior, with the focus of study ranging from the shallow crust to the deep core. A strong background in physics and mathematics is essential, and some experience with computers is valuable. Students often choose to pursue advanced study and careers in geophysics after initially studying physics, mathematics, or engineering. Courses in geophysics emphasize the basic physical laws and processes relevant to the study of the earth, such as gravity, magnetism, heat flow, and seismic wave propagation. The theory of plate tectonics provides a unifying concept for understanding the dynamic behavior of the earth.

    Extractions: Home Index Calendar The Department of Geology offers B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. degrees; also available is a bachelor degree with a teaching major in earth sciences. All degree programs in the department involve field work and a combination of applied and theoretical approaches requiring sound general background in other sciences. High School Preparation: In addition to the general requirements for University admission, recommended high school preparation includes as much mathematics and science as possible. Refer to graduation requirements listed previously in the catalog. See index. Science courses designed for education majors may not be counted toward Geology Department science requirements. Geology courses and allied science courses must be taken for a traditional grade. The Upper-division Writing Expectation must be met by successfully completing an upper-division writing course from the approved list in the Academic Policies and Procedures section of this catalog or by completing GEOL 499. See index. The Geology Department offers four options for students wishing to major in geology. The first option is a highly flexible program designed for those who wish to double major in another science or who simply wish to acquire a broad education of their own design. It features a minimum number of specifically required courses in geology and other sciences. The remaining three options are designed for students who desire a more defined path through our curriculum or who are seeking certification to teach. Some paths in each of the options may require prerequisites that are not specifically listed or required.
