GEOSCIENCES AT PLUPacific Lutheran University offers a unique setting for the study of geosciences. The natural environments of the Pacific Northwest region are unsurpassed in providing a rich variety of geologic field studies. Geoscience is a multidisciplinary field and we offer two majors and minor in Geosciences. We also teach many classes for non-science majors at the university. The student/faculty ratio in geosciences at PLU allows students to work closely with faculty in classes, laboratories, and field studies. |
