Associate of Science Geosciences Pattern of Study
The geosciences pattern of study is for students planning on transferring to a college
or university that offers a bachelor’s degree in geology or a related field of science.
With careful selection of electives for the AS degree, students may also find opportunities
for employment as technicians within the mining industry, environmental consulting
firms, or some state and federal agencies. To best prepare for transfer of this degree
to a bachelor’s program, students should first visit with the geosciences faculty
advisor at GBC, then work to create a schedule in coordination with the catalog requirements
of the college into which the student wishes to transfer. The proper selection of
classes will affect the efficiency of how well the degree will transfer, or how well
it will assist in obtaining employment.
