EARTH AND
ATMOSPHERIC
SCIENCES

In Geology and Geophysics, the BS programs prepare


students for professional careers in industry and
government agencies or provide an excellent foundation
for entrance to graduate school. Students with these
degrees have also been employed in fields associated
with the environmental sciences. The BA program is
well suited for students who wish to pursue geosciencerelated careers in fields such as law, education,
journalism, or urban planning.

In Meteorology, the BS program emphasizes the


characteristics, structure and dynamics of the
atmosphere, global change, and an emphasis on
mathematical and numerical techniques used in weather
forecasting and mesoscale processes. The BA program
offers flexibility so that careers in fields such as
Broadcasting and Environmental Science can be sought.

Environmental Studies (BA)


Foundation Courses in Science and Math:
(minimum 38 credits)
Physical Sciences: (minimum 11 credits)

The Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences


offers a range of undergraduate and graduate programs
in Environmental Science, Environmental Studies,
Geology, Geophysics and Meteorology. Most current
information on these degree programs can be found on
the Departments web page (www.slu.edu/x35834.xml).
In the Environmental Science BS and BA programs,
students gain knowledge and appreciation of the Earths
environment through a sequence of lower-division
courses. Once this scientific foundation has been
established, students pursue a more specialized
sequence of upper-division courses in atmospheric
science, biology, chemistry, and/or geosciences. A
similar breadth-depth approach is followed in the
Environmental Studies BA program. In the Studies
program, a student can focus their upper-division
studies in 1) Philosophy, Religion and Ethics, 2)
Economics, Politics, and Public Policy, 3) Society and
the Environment Through Space and Time, 4)
Advocacy and Discourse, or 5) Natural Sciences. This
breadth-depth approach in the Science and Studies
programs prepare students for the wide range of
challenges they will face as they advance to graduate

General concentration requirement: All students must
earn credit for at least one First Tier course in each of
the concentrations. Any First Tier course in
concentrations other than the major concentration can
be used to satisfy the general concentrations
requirement.
Major concentration requirement: Certain First Tier
courses (denoted by *) are required for concentrations
chosen as a students major concentration. A minimum
of 9 semester credit hours is required from Second Tier
courses. No more than 9 credits from an individual
department may be applied towards the major
concentration requirement. Special rules for students
with two concentrations: Students who choose to select
two major concentrations may apply a maximum of 12
semester credit hours from an individual department
towards completion of both concentrations. One Second
Tier course may be applied simultaneously towards the
completion requirements of both major concentrations.
