GeoDUG
The GeoDUG is a group of Brown University undergraduates interested in the Geological Sciences with a desire to support an undergraduate community within our department and to promote the visibility of our department to the Brown community at large.
Recent Events:
"Pre-Registration Information Session"
Wednesday, 10/21/09
4:00 PM - 5:00 PM
MacMillan 101
You're invited to learn more about geology and other supporting science courses prior to Spring 2010 registration. Undergraduate Geology advisors Jan Tullis, Tim Herbert and Karen Fischer will participate in a panel discussion and will answer your questions as you enjoy refreshments and get to know your GeoDUG peers.
GeoDUG Statement of Purpose:
We recognize that an academic department’s full educational potential can be realized only when its students are actively engaged in their learning; to this end, the Geological Sciences DUG will organize and execute events that serve both to familiarize undergraduates involved in our department with unique opportunities available to them and to maintain a sense of departmental community and interdependence.
During the academic year, we host a series of events to provide intra-departmental peer advising on courses, concentrations, study abroad options, and summer opportunities. We also look to bring together the undergraduates concentrating in our four geological sciences concentrations – Geo, Geo-Bio, Geo-Chem, and Geo-Phys-Math – for social events and community activities.
COMING SOON! A link to our student-maintained website. On it we will post a schedule of upcoming events, resources for geological sciences classes and internships, and photos from our activities. We'll also have Geo FAQs and open forum information.
Thanks for checking out Brown Geological Sciences!
Hoping to see you around GeoChem,
Kelsey Peterson ‘10
GeoDUG Executive Coordinator
