Prerequisites: Permission of department chair is required. The Department of Geosciences will require the completion of a senior Honors Thesis (GEOL 4989/4900) as a capstone course. A Geology faculty member, chosen by the student, will direct a year-long, 6-credit-hour, thesis project. Two additional committee members, one from Geology and one from outside the Geology Department, will serve on an advisory committee with the project director and also act as readers of the thesis. The student will enroll in GEOL 4900 for the spring semester of the project. The thesis will be publicly defended.
