Students pursuing an advanced degree with specialization in hydrology should have completed an undergraduate program comparable to that of Washington State University. Originally, this will require the student to have completed, or to take without graduate credit, course work having a content analogous to that in:
| Geol 206 | (3) | Field Petrology |
| Geol 340 | (4) | Geologic Structures |
| Geol 350 | (4) | Mineralogy & Crystallography |
| Geol 308 | (3) | Geology Field Camp |
| Geol 320 | (3) | Sedimentary Petrology & Sedimentation |
| Geol 475 | (3) | Groundwater |
| CE 315 | (3) | Mechanics of Fluid |
| Math 315 | (3) | Differential Equations |
Required Courses, M.S.:
| Geol 569 | (2) | Field Methods in Hydrogeology |
| Geol

(V) | Groundwater Geochemistry |
Two of the following: |
||
| Geol 428 | (3) | Geostatistics |
| Geol
521 |
(3) | Clastic Depositional Systems |

570 |
(V) | Advanced Topics in Hydrogeology (Organic Contaminants) |
| Geol 584 | (3) | Principles of Isotope Geochemistry |
| CE 576 | (3) | Dynamics of Groundwater Contamination |
Required Courses, Ph.D.:
Students pursuing the Ph.D. degree should have completed all of the courses listed under the requirements of the M.S. program and, in addition, are expected to take:
| CE 550 | (3) | Intermediate Fluid Mechanics |
Additional Courses: Depending upon the individual student's major interest within the ground-water discipline, additional studies will be selected from the following list: |
