Pacific Lutheran University - Tacoma, Washington
Department of Geosciences
Degrees
BA, BS
Pacific Lutheran University offers a unique setting for the study of geosciences. The natural environments of the Pacific Northwest region are unsurpassed in providing a rich variety of geologic field studies in the Cascade Mountains, the Columbia River Basalt Plateau, the coastal areas of the Puget Sound, the Pacific Ocean, and Olympic Peninsula.
We offer two majors and minor in Geosciences. We also teach many classes for non-science majors at the university. The student/faculty ratio in geosciences at PLU allows students to work closely with faculty in classes, laboratories, and field studies. Faculty members are available to work individually with students in small seminar groups and on research projects.
