Introduction to Geology—Physical features of the earth, its origin and history and their effects upon man. Not rec- eommended for science majors or those planning to take additional geology. Field trips required. Credit not given for both Geology 101 or Geology 111 and 112. Four lectures and one recitation per week. A W S (5) PS111. Physical Geology—The earth, its rocks and minerals, surface and subterranean features, their origin and causes as revealed in land features. Credit not given for both Geology 111, 112, and Geology 101. Field trips required. Four lectures Arts, Letters and Science — Geology and Geography per week. Geology 112, Physical Geology laboratory, must be taken concurrently. A W S (4) PS112. Physical Geology Laboratory—Laboratory and field study of minerals, rocks, earth features, and topographic, geologic, and air photo maps. Must accompany Geology 111. A W S (1) PS121. Rocks, Minerals and Earth Materials—Recognition and occurrence of the common ore and rock minerals, rocks, fuels, and other economic materials through class discussions and laboratory work. Field trips required. Three lectures and one laboratory period per week. A (4) 122. Historical Geology—The history of the earth, from its origin to the present, as interpreted from the rocks and their fossil contents. North America, particularly Utah and the adjacent areas, is emphasized. Two required field trips provide a valuable supplement to class discussion. Four lectures and one laboratory period per week. W S (5) 204. Mineralogy of Rock Minerals—Fundamentals of crystallography, and the identification and sight recognition of the more important rock minerals by physical and chemical tests. Prerequisites: Geology 111 and 112 and Chemistry 112 or 122, or permission of the instructor. One lecture and two laboratory periods a week. A (3) 205. Mineralogy of Ore Minerals—Identification of important ore minerals. Prerequisite: Geology 204. One lecture and two laboratory periods a week. W (3) 206. Petrology—Sight recognition of rocks and a study of their classification and occurrence. Two lectures and one laboratory period a week. Prerequisite: Geology 204. S (3) 254. Environmental Geology—The relationship between man and his geological habitat. Problems that people have in using the earth, and the reaction of the earth to that use. Emphasis on earth processes, earth resources, engineering properties of rocks and surficial deposits, geological hazards, land use planning, manipulation of the hydrologic cycle, and urban geologic problems. Field trips required. Three lectures and one laboratory per week. Prerequisites: Geology 101 and 112 or 111 and 112 or consent of instructor. S (4) 275. Introduction to Oceanography—A study of the physical processes in the oceans, including currents, waves, tides, as well as a study of shoreline and ocean floor features. A (5) 130 131 |
