Earth Science, BS
This degree is intended for students interested in studying the Earth and its processes. Students receive a broad background in the Earth sciences and select one of five specialty concentrations. The concentrations in Earth surface processes, environmental geoscience, geology, and paleontology are solely offered by the Department of Atmospheric, Oceanic and Earth Sciences. The concentration in oceanography and estuarine science is offered jointly with the Department of Environmental Science and Policy, where specific advising is also available.

The BA degree stresses the breadth of a liberal arts education in the belief that such study, combined with serious practical training and experience, offers the best preparation for a life in theater and screen.

Students complete the theater core. To organize their advance work within the major, students elect a course of study from four concentrations:

• Performance (Acting and Directing)
• Design and Technical Theater
• Theater Education for Theater Arts PK-12
• Theater Studies
