Selkirk College offers a great start to an undergraduate degree in geology. After completing your first year at Selkirk, you can go on to most universities and continue into the second year of a geology degree program.
If science isn't your passion, but you need science credit for another program or degree, geology is a great option for students coming from a wide variety of backgrounds. Geology provides an integrated perspective because it is a synthesis of chemistry, physics, geography, biology and mathematics.
