Students will learn how to apply modern geological concepts and theories to identify drivers of major geological hazards and reduce their impacts. It is designed for students who major in the geosciences but will also benefit students majoring in environmental science, engineering, public policy and business. A primary goal is to translate a working knowledge of the science of natural hazards into strong critical-thinking and problem-solving skills to prepare students to work with geohazards in their future careers. To meet this goal, the course objectives are to demonstrate the use of geological methods and techniques to study geological hazards, and introduce tools that help to mitigate the impact of these events on humans. Students will learn about established and emerging approaches for reducing the impact of volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, tsunamis, landslides, extraterrestrial impacts, shifts in climate and anthropogenic pollutants on humans and the global economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Prerequisites:<\/strong> any 100 level ERS course.<br><strong>Course Typically Offered:<\/strong> Spring, Even Years<br><strong>Credits:<\/strong> 3<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-pane kt-accordion-pane kt-accordion-pane-18 kt-pane91_ba1815-bb\"><div class=\"kt-accordion-header-wrap\"><button class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-header kt-acccordion-button-label-show\" type=\"button\"><span class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-title-wrap\"><span class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-title\">ERS 320<\/span><\/span><span class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-icon-trigger\"><\/span><\/button><\/div><div class=\"kt-accordion-panel kt-accordion-panel-hidden\"><div class=\"kt-accordion-panel-inner\">\n<p>Research seminar course of students with junior or senior standing.&nbsp; Students will attend research presentations by School of Earth and Climate Sciences faculty or graduate students and write short reviews of these presentations with the goals of increasing student understanding and awareness of the role of research in earth and climate sciences and strengthening students\u2019 writing skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Prerequisites:<\/strong> ERS 200 and ERS 201 and Junior or Senior Standing<br><strong>Course Typically Offered:<\/strong> Fall<br><strong>Credits:<\/strong> 1<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-pane kt-accordion-pane kt-accordion-pane-19 kt-pane91_33b4f2-93\"><div class=\"kt-accordion-header-wrap\"><button class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-header kt-acccordion-button-label-show\" type=\"button\"><span class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-title-wrap\"><span class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-title\">ERS 321<\/span><\/span><span class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-icon-trigger\"><\/span><\/button><\/div><div class=\"kt-accordion-panel kt-accordion-panel-hidden\"><div class=\"kt-accordion-panel-inner\">\n<p>Students conduct an original investigation and report findings.
