Course Schedule
Introductory geology courses, including Geology of Hawaii (Geol 205), are offered every semester. We do not offer a traditional summer field camp, but a Volcano Monitoring Course (Geol 470) is offered every summer. The schedule for geology core courses is listed below.
- During Fall 2006, we will offer structural geology (Geol 330), geomorphology (Geol 342), and volcanology (Geol 470).
- During Spring 2007 we will offer field methods (Geol 370) and historical geology (Geol 112).
- During Fall 2007, we will offer mineralogy (Geol 212) and geomorphology (Geol 342).
- During Spring 2008, we will offer petrology (Geol 320), sedimentology (Geol 340), and historical geology (Geol 112).
In addition to the core courses, one or two upper-division electives are offered each semester. Possible electives include advanced environmental geology, geoloy of North America, geophysics, surface water, groundwater, GIS, remote sensing, and planetary geology. UH-Hilo has strong programs in astronomy, geography, and marine science. Some students may want to minor or double major in these disciplines.
