Well we are all back to work again after our 5 weeks off. First week of semester down. We are all taking Igneous and Metamorphic Petrology, Petroleum Geology, Global Tectonics and Spring Break Field Trip. Joanne and Loretta are also taking Quantitative Methods and Kathleen and Noelle have selected Jim Sears's class Miocene Structure of North West America.
It's great being back. In the coming weeks we are getting a lot of opportunities to conduct group research projects within each course. The Spring Break Field Trip has sedimentary, igneous and metamorphic aspects which will accommodate everyones preferences.
Due to the weather we won't have any fieldtrips until April. There were great subject choices this semester and it was difficult to select which ones to take. There were certain classes which were unique to the University of Montana such as the class Noelle and Kathleen are taking.
We will keep ye posted on our activities throughout the semester.
As part of our degree, International Field Geosciences, we are set to spend a year at the University of Montana, followed by a shorter time at the University of Potsdam, Germany. We began our studies at UCC in the course Environmental and Earth System Sciences, and in second year we specialised into the area of geology, while also taking a german language module. Now we're off to Montana. We will keep you updated on our progress.
