Prerequisites/Notes: Declared geology or geosciences major or minor and junior standing, or instructor approval. Catalog Description : The Junior Seminar engages students in the scientific process. With the guidance of a faculty mentor, each student identifies a topic to investigate in depth. Students read papers, prepare literature reviews and action plans and give final presentations on their topics. The topic a student explores in the junior seminar may be (but is not required to be) the same as the one studied intensively in the Senior Capstone course (GEOS 620). For some students, the junior seminar topic may also be linked to a research project to be continued over the summer and/or through the student's senior year as an independent study or honors project. PREREQUISITES: Declared geology or geosciences major or minor and junior standing, or instructor approval. Attributes: 400-599 Advanced Course
