Westminster College Field Geology

Hosted by: Westminster College

May 9, 2022 - June 19, 2022

Description

Over the course of the six week course, our students will visit some of the most geologically impressive sites throughout Western North America as we travel through Utah, Idaho, Wyoming, and Montana. Our course teaches students both traditional geological field methods along with cutting-edge GIS, hydrology, and remote sensing techniques. We've crafted projects that allow our students to gain experience planning field surveys, installing, monitoring, and collecting data from instrumentation, and analyzing and presenting the data they collect themselves. Our goal is to incorporate data collected on previous Field Geology classes into the data collected each summer so that the students gain experience analyzing and interpreting long-term data sets.
