17 courses with the subject ENV, 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.
ENV 152Oceanography
This course provides a study of the physical processes that affect the oceans of the earth. Emphasis will be on tides, currents, waves, chemistry of the sea, and geology of ocean basins. Three hours lecture.
This course covers various topics pertaining to the earth and its place inthe universe. Major aspects of geology, oceanography, meteorology, and astronomy are studied. Emphasis is placed on the interactions of earth systems, and the evolution of our plane 4 ENV 202 Earth Materials 4 This course is an introduction to the materials that make up the earth and 12 their composition, structure, classification and formation. Students will study earth resources and the environmental impact of resource usage. 4 Topics include mineralogy, petrology (the study of rocks), energy, metals, 3-4 fertilizers, construction/building materials, water and soil. Three hours 7-8 lecture and three hours lab.
This course focuses on geochemical processes that occur at or near the surface of the earth which are of particular importance to environmental quality and therefore to humans and ecological systems. Students will explore the foundational concepts required to understand water and soil chemistry, Other topics include the study and use of analytical tools used to determine contamination in sediments, soils and water and the remediation techniques available to cleanup such pollution. Three hours of lecture and three lab hours. Prerequisite(s): CHM 111, CHM 112, ENV 153
Hydrology deals with the physical principles governing the flow of 3 groundwater and surface water. Emphasis will be on well hydraulics 3-4 and flow system analysis. Topics include water budgets, floods and flood frequency analysis, groundwater supply, steady state and non- steady state flow, hydro-geologic regimes, and introductory groundwater chemistry. Three hours of lecture per week. 62-65

(ILO 3.2a) ILO 8.2b: Effective Expression (Writing-Intensive Course) (p. 440) Credits BIO 230 BIO 230-Integrated Biology II: Populations and 4 Systems (ILO 8.2b) Select one ILO from 10.2, 11.2, or 12.2: Active Responsibility (p. 440)
An overview of soil science, covering the physical, chemical and biological properties of soils. Students will gain an understanding of soil formation, the classification of soils, and the chemical/biological reactions that occur in soils. In the laboratory, students will learn methods of soil analysis, including chemical and mineralogical analyses. Three hours of lecture and three hours of laboratory per week. Prerequisite(s): CHM 111, ENV 153, MTH 113 or MTH 120
This course provides the student with an opportunity to do research with a faculty member. The student and the faculty member agree on the research project before the student registers for the course.
This course is a continuation of the 444 research course. It provides the student with an opportunity to continue to conduct research with a faculty member.
This is normally a full-time, paid employment at a cooperating institution/company to provide on-the-job training (part-time positions may qualify). It involves appropriate job-related learning assignments under faculty supervision. Position must be approved by the Program Director. Consult the Associate Director for Experiential Education in the La Salle University Career Center before registering for the course.
