Binary, hexadecimal, and octal refer to different number systems. The one that we typically use is called decimal. These number systems refer to the number of symbols used to represent numbers. In the decimal system, we use ten different symbols: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9. With these ten symbols, we can represent any quantity.
We have two majors: a Bachelor of Science in geology and a Bachelor of Arts in geoscience. The B.S. in geology is a rigorous and well-rounded geology major that teaches all of the general skills needed to be successful for employment or graduate school in the field of geology.
Department of Earth Science and Physical Science. Earth Science students learn about geoscience with an emphasis on the scientific method, problem solving, and interdisciplinary science education. Our graduates are prepared for careers in geoscience, education, environmental management and natural hazards mitigation.
