PRE-GEOLOGY
(GEOL-AA)

PRIMARY ADVISER:   Jamie Webb (ext. 2858)

PROGRAM GOAL:  This program is designed to prepare students for upper division studies in geology, science education, or earth and environmental sciences.  Each of these sub-specialties in geology may have unique prerequisites for upper division studies.  Therefore, it is necessary for students to make themselves aware of each institution's requirements.  State universities offering upper division work in geology are FAU, FIU, FSU, USF, and UF.  It is strongly recommended that students be familiar with the admissions requirements of the university they plan to attend.
