Geology. An environmental geoscientist needs an excellent understanding of the materials from which the Earth is made, the processes acting on and within the Earth, and Earth structures. The student should also have learned the history of the changing Earth through time, and how the rock record can be interpreted to provide evidence of these changes. The following competency areas will allow majors to identify and solve problems in the geosciences: Competency Area 1: Formation Of The Solar System And Earth Competency Area 2: Plate Tectonics And Earthquakes Competency Area 3: Minerals Competency Area 4: Igneous Rocks And Environments Competency Area 5: Weathering, Soil, And Mass Wasting Competency Area 6: Sedimentary Rocks And Environments Competency Area 7: Metamorphic Rocks And Environments Competency Area 8: Deformation And The Continents Competency Area 9: Surface Water And Groundwater Competency Area 10: Climate, Glaciers, Wind, And Coastal Processes Competency Area 11: Geologic Time And Rock Correlation Competency Area 12: Stratigraphy Competency Area 13: Sedimentary Environments Competency Area 14: Origin And Diversity Of Life Competency Area 15: Evolution Competency Area 16: The Precambrian Competency Area 17: Early Paleozoic Life And Earth History Competency Area 18: Late Paleozoic Life And Earth History Competency Area 19: Mesozoic Life And Earth History Competency Area 20: Cenozoic Life And Earth History Competency Area 21: Primate And Human Evolution Competency areas #1-11 are often taught as part of a Physical Geology course. Additional competencies in #11-21 are often taught as part of a Historical Geology course. See Appendix C: Competencies for Preparation in Geology.
