EDUC 2403 - Exploring Earth And Space Science

Credit Hours: 3

This course is a broad examination of the earth from the perspective of a planet that is simultaneously both unique and like other planetary bodies. The scope of the course examines the dynamic components of the earth’s structure including its geology (lithosphere), its oceans, rivers, and other bodies of water (hydrosphere), its atmosphere and the relationships of these spheres to living things (biosphere). The interconnected nature of these spheres and the transformations of energy and flow of matter driving their dynamics will be a theme of the course. The course also examines the context of the earth in space and its near and distant neighbors (the sun and solar system, stars, galaxy structure and the structure and dynamics of an expanding universe).
