專業(yè)概況
在這里學(xué)什么?
Apply physics, chemistry, meteorology, hydrology, biology, geology and engineering science to understanding the Earth, recognizing and coping with environmental hazards, exploiting natural resources while preserving the environment, and exploring Earth's context in the solar system. Although often equated with geotechnical engineering, a discipline closely aligned with civil engineering, geological engineering is more correctly characterized as a program focused on geologic hazards mitigation and natural resource characterization. In one sense, geological engineering is a form of environmental engineering.
Potential areas of specialization within the program include:
- Earthquakes and neotectonics
- Geodesy
- Geologic hazards
- Geomorphology
- Geophysical exploration
- Global change
- Igneous petrology and volcanology
- Metamorphic geochemistry
- Mineral exploration and ore genesis
- Paleomagnetism
- Paleoseismology
- Planetary geology
- Quaternary sciences
- Regional geology
- remote sensing
- Seismology and seismic hazards
Course Work -31 cr of graduate courses, including:
- GEOL 795 Comprehensive exam (1 credit, taken second semester for all M.S. programs)
- 24 credits of coursework (at least 12 credits at the 700 level); 3 of these 24 credits must be GEOL 790 (1 credit)
- 6 cr of thesis (GEOL 797)
