The department has offered geography and geology courses since 1934. The geography and geology programs of the Department of Geosciences include both bachelor of arts and bachelor of science degrees. The department also offers a master of science degree in environmental and urban geosciences (formerly the master of science in urban environmental geology degree). Students who designate geosciences as their coordinating discipline for the interdisciplinary doctoral program must meet admission and other requirements available from the department.
