IU Earth Sciences Summer Field Courses in Montana

The Judson Mead Geologic Field Station of Indiana University is again offering two summer field courses for current IU students in all majors as well as incoming freshmen. The courses will be conducted at the Judson Mead Geologic Field Station, located in the canyon of the South Boulder River in the Tobacco Root Mountains near Cardwell, Montana. GEOL G103/S103 Earth Sciences: Materials & Processes includes a two-day, two-night field trip to nearby Yellowstone National Park. GEOL G104/S104 Evolution of the Earth includes a two-day, two-night field trip to nearby Glacier National Park.

Students will be able to view and experience earth sciences up close and outside the confines of the usual classroom, and will be able to earn 3 or 6 hours of Natural & Mathematical credits (or N&M and Honors credits) in only 2 or 4 weeks this summer. The dates for the courses are July 6 - 20 (3 credits) or July 6 - August 3 (6 credits).

Additional information and course application are available on our website: http://www.indiana.edu/~iugfs/courses/g103.php. Scholarships are available for minority students.
