Overview

Major Program

In addition, because of the wide variety of ways in which geologic knowledge can be applied, all students are encouraged to take electives in subjects appropriate to their personal objectives, which may be as diverse as the engineering applications of geology or the socioeconomic and legal systems bearing on environmental issues.

The Earth, Environmental, and Planetary Sciences program of the Case Western Reserve University stress practical experience and fieldwork as well as classroom study. The environmental geology major combines courses in geological sciences with courses in basic and applied sciences to provide students with an understanding of environmental problems, with employable skills, and with a background for graduate study or professional school. All students participate in a three-semester Senior Project sequence in which they propose a research project, conduct the research, write a thesis, and present it to the Department.
