5 5Geology and GeographyDegreesGeography major: Bachelor of ArtsGeology major: Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of ScienceAlan C. Donaldson, ChairpersonRobert C. Shumaker, Associate ChairpersonRobert Hanham, Assistant ChairpersonGeologyBachelor of ScienceThe Bachelor of Science degree is designed for students who want to qualify forprofessional positions in industry and government services, as well as those who planto do graduate work in geology. Qualified students are encouraged to seek a graduatedegree, although placement in positions emphasizing environmental, energy, engineering,and economic geology are probable as BS graduates. A total of 134 hours isrequired. Electives must be chosen to meet the basic requirements of the College ofArts and Sciences and fulfill the University Liberal Studies Program.Candidates for the Bachelor of Science are required to take a total of 40 hours ofgeology courses. Students are urged to elect some supporting courses in such fieldsas mining or petroleum engineering, biology, geography, soil mechanics, pedology,and computer science, depending on their major field of geologic studies. Studentsplanning to attend graduate school or seek employment in the oil industry shouldcomplete a full year of calculus. Electives should be chosen with the adviser's consent.Instructional facilities and equipment include the laboratories associated withmineralogy, petrology, geochemistry, sedimentology, paleontology, hydrogeology,geophysics, geomorphology, mineral and fuel resources, and structural geology. Fieldstudies are stressed with geologic mapping at Camp Wood in Greenbrier County;carbonate sediments and their depositional environments in the Florida Keys; sedimentationand coastal processes on the eastern shore of Virginia; pollution measurementsin nearby streams and lakes; field trips to glaciated areas; examinations ofprocesses acting on earth's surface in West Virginia; and structural and stratigraphicanalyses of the Appalachian basin and orogenic belt. Subsurface logs and samplesare available for study in the West Virginia Geological and Economic Survey and thenearby Morgantown Energy Technology Center of the U.S. Department of Energy.Bachelor of Arts, Geology MajorThe program leading to the Bachelor of Arts with a major in geologyis designedfor students who want to go into careers that require a good background in the basicprinciples of geology. Areas such as environmental science, planning, or other earthrelatedsciences, secondary school teaching, or earth science laboratory technicalwork may be pursued by proper choice of electives.Admission RequirementsAdmission to the programs requires at least a cumulative average of 2.25and an average of at least 2.25 in lower-division required geology courses. Tocontinue in the programs, an average of at least 2.0 must be maintained in requiredchemistry, physics, mathematics, and statistics courses. At least a 2.0 average mustalso be maintained in required upper-division geology courses.Degree Requirements— B.S.Required courses for a B.S. with a major in geology: Geol. 1 , 2, 3, 4, 152, 1 84,1 85, 221 , 231 , 261 , 266, and four hours of upper-division geology electives; Chem. 1and 1 6; Phys. 1 and 2 or 1 1 and 1 2; Math. 3, 4, 1 5, and 1 6 or Stat. 21 2 or 231 ; Stat.101.Geology and Geography 1 1
