Montclair State U. Geology Field Camp

Montclair State U. Geology Field Camp This page is used to make connections, share photos and experiences, and help stay in touch with students who have attended MSU's Geology Field Camp.

Montclair State University’s (EAES404/508) Field Geology course is designed to allow students to bring their classroom knowledge into a field setting and give them the opportunity to experience intensive field training and discover the incredible natural geologic laboratory of the northern Rockies as well as right here in northwestern New Jersey. EAES404/508 Field Geology is a traditional, 5½ -wee

k intensive geologic mapping course that focuses on both surficial and bedrock geologic mapping (in New Jersey, Wyoming, and Montana). The curriculum is designed to meet the field geology requirements of most B.S. Geology degrees; however, there are also elements of environmental science, including soil science, hydrology, and environmental geophysics.

While conducting fieldwork near Paterson Great Falls, we came upon our former student Erik Strandskov, thanks to Dr. Josh Galster looking him up. Erik was part of our very first Geology Field Camp in 2014. Erik is now a project geologist working for GEI Consultants, a national environmental firm, in this case overseeing the hazardous cleanup and new construction in the Great Falls National Historic Park. Erik was able to show us the temporarily closed off site, and explained to the students some of his daily activities that directly connected with his earlier Field Geology experience!
