All of the degrees within the School of the Earth, Ocean and Environment require math
as part of their curricula. Incoming students must take an online placement exam before they can register for any math courses. Majors in Marine Science, Geophysics
or Environmental Science must take the MPT-C Precalculus Placement Exam (for placement
into MATH 115 or 141), while majors in Geological Sciences or Environmental Studies
may choose to take either the MPT-C or the MPT-A Algebra Placement Test (for placement
into MATH 111 or 122.)
Advisement
Orientation includes time for individual advisement appointments with an SEOE faculty
advisor, followed by the opportunity to register for courses for the upcoming semester.
Given each major's unique backgrounds and interests, students' first year course schedules
vary widely.
