Transfers ToCSUDescriptionThe Associate in Science in Geology for Transfer (AS-T) degree may be obtained by completion of 60 transferable, semester units with a minimum 2.0 GPA, including (a) the major or area of emphasis described in the Required Program, and (b) the California General Education Transfer Curriculum (Cal-GETC) Requirement. Student Learning Outcomes Upon completion of this program, the student will be able to: evaluate ideas about the natural universe using testable methodology, differentiate between scientific and non-scientific information, and demonstrate understanding of the scientific method by designing a valid scientific inquiry. examine and enumerate orally and/or in writing the importance of continuous examination and modification of accepted ideas as a fundamental element in the progress of science. analyze a wide variety of natural phenomena using basic definitions and fundamental theories of natural science. apply knowledge of current geologic processes to the understanding of Earth's past geologic history. synthesize diverse geological terminology and concepts and be able to explain them to a diverse audience. evaluate and analyze contemporary geologic problems including the implications of human activities on geologic resources. integrate information about the rate and scale of simple geologic processes and be able to convert between them. Career Information The Geology transfer degree is designed to facilitate students' successful transfer to four-year colleges that ultimately prepare them for advanced study in a variety of graduate programs as well as a variety of career opportunities in the fields of environmental monitoring, protection and remediation, energy and mineral exploration, paleontology, vulcanology, seismology, climatology, teaching, and research.
