海洋的地质密度 & 地球科学B.S. degree is designed for students with a wide range of professional goals in the sciences, 工程, 业务, 还有艺术. Students seeking employment in pure and applied fields of geology, 包括环境地质学, 海洋地质, 水文地质, 海洋地质, 地球生物学, 地球物理学, 和地球化学, should also choose their courses to support certification as a professional geologist (below). Students considering graduate work in these fields should similarly build their backgrounds accordingly. Students with a strong interest in geological applications of geographic information systems (GIS) and remote sensing tools should consider the geology concentration with a minor in geography; the certificate program in spatial analysis of coastal environments also emphasizes this area of study.
