Geomorphology Minor (16 Credits, 9 unique to minor)
The study of earth surface processes and landforms which applies principles of physics, chemistry, hydrology and sedimentology to understand earth surface landscapes. Geomorphologists use computer programs like geographic information systems to analyze, explain, and evaluate the geologic nature of earth surface environments.
