Binary, hexadecimal, and octal refer to different number systems. The one that we typically use is called decimal. These number systems refer to the number of symbols used to represent numbers. In the decimal system, we use ten different symbols: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9. With these ten symbols, we can represent any quantity.
We have two majors: a Bachelor of Science in geology and a Bachelor of Arts in geoscience. The B.S. in geology is a rigorous and well-rounded geology major that teaches all of the general skills needed to be successful for employment or graduate school in the field of geology.
This class is one of the first courses geography majors must take and is usually offered during the freshman year. This class, a foundation in the study of geography, studies the physical character of the earth. Students learn about climate issues, weather patterns, landforms, soils, vegetation and water usage. Laboratory work is routinely part of any physical geography course. This class is often offered in the first year of study.
