GEOS 292 - Geoscience Excursions

Minimum Credit(s) Awarded: 1
Maximum Credit(s) Awarded: 3

Science learning experiences occur in the classroom, in the laboratory, and in the field. In this experience-based course, students discover and experience facts, concepts, and laws of science for themselves, much as scientists do in their professional lives. Experiences that extend from the classroom into the field allow students to explore, observe, and investigate things in the natural world that cannot be effectively brought into the classroom learning environment. Travel is an essential part of the class and locations will be chosen for their scientific and/or environmental significance. Classroom sessions will precede the travel portion of the course. Cross-listed BIO 292 and NATS 292

Prerequisite(s): Specific Prerequisites of the course will vary based on the requirements of the specific travel experience.
