A
concentration plan in the Department of Geological Sciences is developed in consultation
with a concentration advisor. A proposed plan must be approved in its
entirety by the appropriate advisor prior to registration for the first term
of concentration. Thereafter, progress through the plan and future elections must
be reviewed, and approved in advance, whenever a change is proposed and
in any case no less frequently than at the beginning of each new academic year
of residence. Certification must also be obtained from an advisor, on an official
LS&A Concentration Release Form, immediately prior to submission
of the application for the degree.
Information
about concentration program options in geological sciences and about appointments
with concentration advisors is available at 2534 C.C. Little Building.
