Description
A sound foundation in physical, chemical, geological and quantitative sciences as a basis for understanding the hydrologic cycle and managing water resources. NOTE: All Hydrogeology Major Requirements courses and their prerequisite courses must be passed with a grade of “C” or greater; “C-” or lower is not acceptable. Because of the significant amount of common interdisciplinary coursework, students having their major within the Department of Geological Sciences and Engineering may not also have a minor from within the Department.
