An introduction to the materials and processes of the geosphere. Topics include: minerals; rocks; and geological resources; surficial features and processes; natural hazards; plate tectonics; fossils; hydrology; and soils.
A hands-on investigation of geological materials, features, and processes. Emphasis is placed on techniques to identify rock and mineral samples, utilize topographic and geologic maps, identify and interpret geological structures, and measure rates in geological settings (e.g., plate motion, erosion, and water flow). Includes local field trip(s).
An analysis of the various sources of energy (both fossil and renewable) utilized by modern societies, including the means by which these sources are acquired, produced, distributed, and consumed. Includes a survey of industry safety considerations, global environment and health impacts, and methods by which user-end efficiencies and/or alternatives can reduce the amount of energy consumed.
