Bachelor of Science [B.S] (Geology, Paleontology Plan)
Field of Study:
$21,074/Yr
The Paleontology Plan in the Department of Physical Sciences is designed for students with an interest in Geology and Biology. The B.S. in Geology with the Paleontology Plan provides students with an excellent theoretical and practical background in Geology with a specialization in invertebrate, vertebrate, or micro- fossils. It provides the background needed for students seeking employment with natural history museums. Additionally, some job opportunities for micropaleontologists exist in the petroleum industry, normally for those with an M.S. degree. This plan is required for an M.S. in Paleontology.
Because UTPB does not offer a Summer Field Geology Course, students must take it at a University that offers it, and transfer those credits back to UTPB. They must obtain their advisor?s approval for the specific institution selected for that Summer Field Geology Course (6 credit hours) and the transcript will reflect the course number used by the institution from which they took the course. See above information of the less desirable alternative, two additional upper level courses in Geology.
