1 EARTH AND ATMOSPHERIC SCIENCES William Dannevik, Ph.D, Chair Faculty: Lisa Chambers, Ph.D. Karl Chauff, Ph.D. David Crossley, Ph.D. William Dannevik, Ph.D. Timothy Eichler, Ph.D. John Encarnacion, Ph.D Jack Fishman, Ph.D. Benjamin de Foy, Ph.D. Charles Graves, Ph.D. Daniel Hanes, Ph.D. Elizabeth Hasenmueller, Ph.D. Robert Herrmann, Ph.D. Ana Londono, Ph.D. Zaitao Pan, Ph.D. Robert Pasken, Ph.D. Linda Warren, Ph.D. Lupei Zhu, Ph.D. The Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences offers a range of undergraduate and graduate programs in Environmental Science, Environmental Studies, Geology, Geophysics and Meteorology. Most current information on these degree programs can be found on the Department s web page ( In the Environmental Science BS and BA programs, students gain knowledge and appreciation of the Earth s environment through a sequence of lower-division courses. Once this scientific foundation has been established, students pursue a more specialized sequence of upper-division courses in atmospheric science, biology, chemistry, and/or geosciences. A similar breadth-depth approach is followed in the Environmental Studies BA program. In the Studies program, a student can focus their upper-division studies in 1) Philosophy, Religion and Ethics, 2) Economics, Politics, and Public Policy, 3) Society and the Environment Through Space and Time, 4) Advocacy and Discourse, or 5) Natural Sciences. This breadth-depth approach in the Science and Studies programs prepare students for the wide range of challenges they will face as they advance to graduate school, law school, medical school, or employment in government, industry, and non-profit agencies. In Geology and Geophysics, the BS programs prepare students for professional careers in industry and government agencies or provide an excellent foundation for entrance to graduate school. Students with these degrees have also been employed in fields associated with the environmental sciences. The BA program is well suited for students who wish to pursue geoscience-related careers in fields such as law, education, journalism, or urban planning. In Meteorology, the BS program emphasizes the characteristics, structure and dynamics of the atmosphere, global change, and an emphasis on mathematical and numerical techniques used in weather forecasting and mesoscale processes. The BA program offers flexibility so that careers in fields such as Broadcasting and Environmental Science can be sought.

2 Internship / Capstone Course: (minimum 3 credits.) Choose one from list: EAS 440 Capstone Project 3 EAS 480 Internship 0-6 Concentrations: (minimum 27 credits) General concentration requirement: All students must earn credit for at least one course in each of the concentrations. Any course in concentrations other than the major concentration can be used to satisfy the general concentrations requirement. Major concentration requirement: Certain courses (denoted by * ) are required for concentrations chosen as a student s major concentration. A minimum of 9 semester credit hours is required from courses. No more than 9 credits from an individual department may be applied towards the major concentration requirement. Special rules for students with two concentrations: Students who choose to select two major concentrations may apply a maximum of 12 semester credit hours from an individual department towards completion of both concentrations. One course may be applied simultaneously towards the completion requirements of both major concentrations. Philosophy, Religion, and Ethics PHIL 342 Environ. and Ecol.
