Welcome to GEL1010 - Physical Geology!
Either online, hybrid or in-person, this course introduces the basic theories, concepts, and assumptions used in geology, utilizing both lecture and laboratory components. For this purpose we have developed a high quality laboratory kit for home use that will allow you to complete practical lab assignments from home. You will learn to identify common rocks and minerals and enjoy the great outdoors as never before.
A self-guided field trip will be required as part of a outdoor field course project.
