Lauren Interess Adventure Fellowship
Williams Geosciences Courses |

We teach about how the earth works, inside and out. Whether to fulfill science distribution requirements, round out a background in physics or biology (or classics, or economics!), or to major in Geosciences, our Department has many topical and exciting courses. We use our mountain setting as a natural lab. We spend time outdoors, looking at rocks in place and processes as they are happening. Whether assessing the flood potential of local streams, mapping the folded and faulted rocks of the Taconics or Green Mountains, studying Pleistocene glacial deposits, or collecting minerals or fossils, geosciences courses provide students with a wealth of enriching earth science experience. |
