Geography Teaching Major—Students taking the Geography Teaching Major are required to complete a minimum of 46 hours of satisfactory work in Geography including the following courses: Geography 101, 152, 321, 336, 340, 350, 405, 499 plus at least 15 hours from the following: 354, 359, 362, 364, 374, and 378. In addition Geology 341 is required. Geography 305 is strongly recommended. Geography Teaching Minor—Same requirements as Departmental Geography Minors. Departmental Geology Major—Students taking the Geology Major are required to complete from 48-60 hours of satisfactory work in Geology including the following courses: Geology 111 and 112 or 154 (or 101 plus Geology 112), 122, 204, 205, 206, 306, 318, 376, 406, 450, 480, and either 363 or 385. Geology majors are also required to take the following courses: Chemistry 121, 122 and 123; Mathematics 106 and 107; and fifteen hours of physics in the General Physics or Engineering Physics series. Engineering Physics is required of those going into Geophysics. Departmental Geology Minor—Students taking the Geology Minor are required to satisfactorily complete the following courses: Geology 111 and 112 or 154 (or 101 plus Geology 112), 122, 204, 205, 206, 306, and 318. Earth Science Teaching Major—A student selecting this major must have a minimum of 37 hours of Geology, 13 hours of Geography, 4 hours of Astronomy, plus the following minimum hours in the supporting areas: 10 hours of Physics, 10 hours of Chemistry, 10 hours of Mathematics, and 4 hours of Botany. The required courses represent minimal training in the Earth Sciences but are selected to provide the student with a workable knowledge and an adequate base for graduate work. A minor is required and one of the Biological Sciences is strongly recommended as the minor. Students electing the Earth Science Teaching Major must select a minor other than those offered by the department. The required courses are: Geology 111, 112, 122, 204, 206, 275, 306, and three courses from the following list—Geology 315, 318, 341, 363, 376, 385, 406, and 450. In addition, Geography 113, 152, and 305; Physics 103; and Botany 341 are required. Required courses in the supporting areas include Physics 111, 112, 114, 115, or 261, 262, 264, 265; Chemistry 121, 122; Mathematics 106 and 107. Physics 113 or 263, 116 or 266 are suggested as electives. Earth Science Teaching Minor—Students taking the Earth Science Teaching Minor are required to complete a minimum of 25 hours of satisfactory work in Geology and Geography including the following courses: Geology 111, 112, 121, 122, 306, and either Geography 113 or 305, plus one of the following: Geology 315, 318, 341, 376, or 406. Students are encouraged to strengthen their background in Earth Science by taking Geology 275. Physics 103 and Geography 152. The Earth Science Teaching Minor complements both the Biological and Physical Science Teaching Major in our present secondary school teaching program, both in-state and contiguous areas. Students electing an Earth Science Teaching Minor must have a major in another field outside the department. Composite Teaching Major in Physical Sciences—(Geography- Geology emphasis) See Mathematics and Physical Sciences Composite Teaching Major, School of Education. Any deviation from these requirements must have departmental approval prior to the senior year. GEOGRAPHY Courses of Instruction PS101.
