Leading to: Bachelor of Science in Geology

The B.S. in Geology is our professional degree program, designed to meet the curriculum requirements of California state accreditation in Geology, which is required to practice as a professional geologist in California. It also provides a strong foundation in the subject for students interested in academic, research or teaching careers. At this time, the institution has not made a determination if completion of our program is sufficient to meet licensure or certificate requirements for states outside of California.

The core curriculum of the Geology Major trains students in the fundamentals of geology, with a strong emphasis on learning in the field, making full use of southern California’s ‘natural laboratory’. Elective classes, from a diverse array of topics reflecting the expertise of our faculty, allow majors to develop their interests. The degree culminates in a summer field class in which students can apply the knowledge and skills gained.
