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 101 plus Geology 112), 122, 204, 205, 206, 295 (3 hours), 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. Engineering Graphics 135 recommended. Departmental Geology Minor—Students taking the Geology Minor are required to satisfactorily complete the following courses: Geology 111 and 112 (or 101 plus Geology 112), 122, 204, 205, and 206. He also must take two of the following three courses and sign up for a one hour special problem covering the subject content of the third course: Geology 295 (3 hours), 306, and 318. Earth Science Composite Teaching Major—Earth science students are required to take 31 hours of Geology, 8 hours of Geography, plus the following minimum hours in the supporting areas: 5 hours of Mathematics, 5 hours of Zoology, 5 hours of Astronomy, 5 hours of Physics, 5 hours of Chemistry, and 8 hours of Botany. The required courses are: Geology 111-112, 122, 254, 275, 295 (4 hours), 315, 480 (4 hours—Special problems in Mineralogy); Geography 113, 305; Physics 101 (or 111 and 112), 103 (Astronomy); Botany 110, 140; General Zoology 160; Chemistry 111; Mathematics 105. These required courses are selected to prepare the student for Earth Science teaching at the secondary level. Thirty-three credit hours in the School of Education must be taken in order to receive the Utah State teaching certificate. These courses are Education 300, 350, 355, 495 as well as Psychology 101 and Communication 102. The following courses are also recommended: Geology 306, 318, 341, 363; Geography 340; Botany 221, 341.

Students are encouraged to strengthen their background in Earth Science by taking Geology 275, Physics 103 and Geography 152. The Geology Teaching Minor compliments both the Biological and Physical Science Teaching Major in our present secondary school teaching program, both in-state and contiguous areas. Students electing the Geology 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 PS 101.
