D Earth & Environmental Sci (10344)
DCSE - Swenson College of Science and Engineering
Course description
Earth systems science is an interdisciplinary approach to understanding the processes operating within and the interactions between the geosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere, and biosphere. In this course we investigate the changing nature of the Earth; its composition, architecture, and antiquity; the internal and external processes that shape it through time; cycles of energy and matter; the development of life and impact of human activity; and both local environmental issues and global change. This course contains a lab component.
For students using a 2012-2021 LEP catalog year, the GEOL subject is now EES. If you have already taken a GEOL course, EES 1110 will not fulfill the requirement of a different subject.
Credit will not be granted if already received for GEOL 1110
