Program of Study

Geology Minor

The Geology Minor is designed to improve students’ understanding of geologic processes and how these processes fit into environmental issues. The program takes advantage of Colorado’s unique natural setting to allow students to deepen and expand their appreciation of nearly two billion years of geologic history. The minor is meant for students who would like to acquire a foundational knowledge of geology in addition to their major area of study.
