Geology

These major requirements optimize preparation for upper division course work for advanced degrees in Geology offered by four-year institutions.

Since the course work in geology is sequential, students may spend less time earning an Associate and/or Bachelor’s degree by deferring some of the university general education requirements until their junior and senior years and by giving priority to the requirements for a major in geology.

In addition, earning this degree suggests an achievement of technical skills that may be helpful in seeking immediate employment..
