Advising

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.
