General Geology Course
Master essential geology skills for real-world projects: read rocks and maps, reconstruct basin history, evaluate landslide, flood, and seismic hazards, and convert tectonic and landform data into solid recommendations for infrastructure design. Gain practical know-how to interpret rocks, stratigraphy, and surface processes in western mountain basins, read maps, logs, and remote data, rebuild geologic timelines, and assess risks for roads and small dams.

What will I learn?
This General Geology Course builds practical skills to interpret rocks, stratigraphy, and surface processes in western mountain basins. Learn to read maps, logs, and remote datasets, reconstruct geologic history, and evaluate hazards for roads and small dams. Develop tools to assess seismic risk, slope stability, and site conditions for clear, defensible recommendations on real projects.
