Degree Programs -> Minor in Geology |
 The minor in geology is designed to complement students majoring in another program on campus related to the earth sciences. The minor provides a general overview and context of the basic principles and concepts of geology. Additionally, the minor is a good option for people who are interested in geology but do not wish to pursue a career in the earth sciences.
A decision to minor in geology should be made in consultation with a department undergraduate adviser. |
