GEOS
12 courses with the subject GEOS, each shown exactly as we captured it from the college's catalog, with every element we hold. Where the wording looks broken, that is our reading of the catalog, not the college's text.
GEOS 151(Foundations of Earth Sciences)
Four of the following core courses: • GEOS 302 (Structural Geology) • GEOS 305 (Earth Materials) • GEOS 309 (Sedimentology and Stratigraphy) • GEOS 331 (Geochemistry) • A 300-level geophysics course (GEOS 333: Environmental Geophysics or GEOS 335: Global Geophysics and Tectonics) Seven electives: • At least four electives must be GEOS courses, although all seven elective courses may be taken in the department if a student wishes. Any GEOS course above the 100- level can count as an elective. However, a class cannot double count as both a core class and elective. Students may count either GEOS 141 or GEOS 142 (but not both) as an elective if taken prior to or concurrently with GEOS 151. • Up to three electives may come from a course in an allied field. Any electives taken outside the department should provide foundational knowledge in disciplines that will enhance a student’s geoscience education. Courses that may count as in

GEOS 302Structural Geology
Biology majors must complete either General Chemistry CHEM 131 and 132 or Accelerated General Chemistry CHEM 141. Two semesters of mathematical sciences (Calculus and/or Statistics), and two semesters of physics, are strongly recommended for students intending graduate study toward an advanced degree in biology or the health professions. Students should consult with their faculty advisors about taking additional courses in other sciences that might be important to their career plans. Research Experience. All biology majors must include a research experience as part of their undergraduate program. During this research experience, students are expected to actively participate in research design, execution, and data analysis, to contribute new information in the field of Biology, and to demonstrate independence with respect to the project. Biology majors are required to present the results of the research experience in an on-campus symposium or at a regional or national conference. This research requirement may be satisfied by the successful completion of one of the following options. The student’s faculty advisor should be consulted prior to undertaking a project to determine whether or not the completed experience satisfies this major requirement. 1. an independent research project (550) or a student/faculty collaborative research project (560) for biology credit 2. an on-campus or off-campus research experience during the summer. Students are encouraged to complete the transcript notation (REXP) via the Center for Advising, Internships & Lifelong Career Development. 3. 412 - Seminar; 4. a research experience not covered by the above but deemed equivalent by the faculty advisor
