GEOS 103 S - Oceans and Atmosphere

Minimum Credit(s) Awarded: 4
Maximum Credit(s) Awarded: 4

The oceans and atmosphere are deeply connected to one another and have a major impact on our way of life. In this course, we will study the physical materials, processes, and features of both, while acknowledging that climate change may be altering their effects on society. Students will consider the nature of change in Earth systems and how humanity is becoming a significant agent of such change. This course makes use of case studies, focusing on real world problems related to climate change, to explore the private and public questions you may face as a private citizen in the future concerning our planet’s oceans and atmosphere.

Prerequisite(s): Math placement level 2 or completion of M-tag
