The Bachelor of Science in Geology program curriculum at Louisiana State University prepares undergraduates for graduate study in geology and related fields, as well as for various professional careers such as teaching, research, resource exploration and development, and environmental management and remediation. The undergraduate curriculum offers three areas of concentration: Geology, Environmental Geology, and Geophysics.
Students in the Geology and Environmental Geology concentrations follow a similar basic curriculum for the first five semesters, focusing on foundational courses in mineralogy, petrology, structural geology, and sedimentology, along with basic courses in biology, chemistry, physics, and mathematics. The emphasis for all concentrations is on fundamental geologic processes, with laboratory and field studies integrated at all levels, including a six-week field geology course at the department’s permanent field camp in the Colorado Front Range.
The curriculum allows for flexibility in the final three semesters, enabling students to develop a program of advanced coursework tailored to their area of concentration and career goals with department guidance and approval. Students in the environmental geology concentration take physical hydrogeology.
All three concentrations aim to provide students with a solid foundation in basic geology and prepare them for entry into a graduate program or a professional career.
