Academic PRograms and Courses
Students considering EAS majors are encouraged to discuss their plans with EAS faculty during their freshman and sophomore years. Students should have made a solid beginning in the math, physics and chemistry coursework that form the foundation of their major prior to admission to the major. Students applying for admission to an EAS major should have completed the introductory 200 level course in their major (EAS 220 for geology majors, EAS 230 for hydrology majors, EAS 260 for meteorology majors and EAS 205 for earth and space science teaching majors). Application for admission to a major in EAS is typically done in the sophomore year.
Extensive coursework in the sciences and mathematics is required in EAS major programs. Thus, students majoring in these programs are considered to have satisfied the 9 credit general education requirement in the natural sciences (Distribution Area B) and the Core 3 Mathematics requirement. The Math Competency requirement (Core 3) is satisfied by the required math courses in the major programs in the department.
