Some assignments will introduce problem solving using popular spreadsheet programs and groundwater modeling software. Geology majors are required to take both Geology 470 and Geology 471 concurrently. All grading is based on reports for each problem set, laboratory experiment, or field exercise. Unless otherwise informed, the reports are due one week from the date they are assigned. Each student is responsible for a course project determining the capture zone of a community water district supplied by groundwater wells.
Projects are due at the end of the course.
Each student will summarize his or her results to the rest of the class during the last session. See Laboratory Requirements for expectations.
