---Please Announce to Students---
Iceland Volcanology Field Camp
Iceland Volcanology Field Camp
3 or 4 semester credits, undergraduate or graduate
We are pleased to announce the third annual Iceland Volcanology Field Camp, offered by the South Dakota School of Mines & Technology through the Black Hills Natural Sciences Field Station. The course is filling fast, so interested students are encouraged to register quickly.
3 credits, July 22 – August 11, 2015, Fee: $3,995
4 credits, July 22 - August 16, 2015, Fee: $4,995
-Fee covers transportation in Iceland, lodging, and most meals. Transportation to/from Iceland not included.
-Enrollment limited to 18 students
This project-driven course in volcanology will explore Iceland from the south coast where the Mid-Atlantic Ridge comes ashore to the highlands near the focus of the Iceland mantle plume. Subjects that will be considered include: basaltic and rhyolitic lava flows, tephra characterization, phreatomagmatic features, subglacial volcanism, volcano monitoring, and geothermal power. Projects will be conducted on active volcanic systems, in Late Pleistocene and Holocene volcanic fields, and in the older Neogene volcanic stratigraphy exposed in glacial valleys and fjords of Iceland. Students taking the class for four credits will explore non-volcanic aspects of the geologic history of Iceland as well.

Another opportunity: Isles of Greece! 2015
Students
interested in an interdisciplinary course in Greece integrating
geology, history/archaeology, and philosophy can apply to the University
of South Dakota’s Isles of Greece! course. The course is available for
credits in the following subjects: Earth Science, History, Philosophy,
Art History, Classical Humanities, English, Religious Studies, and
Political Science. One week land-based and two weeks based on
sailboats. This year’s land-based portion includes time in Athens and
visiting ancient Greek sites in Turkey; and the sailing portion will be
in the northern Dodecanese Islands, including volcanic islands of
Nisyros and Kos. To be clear, this course is NOT a geology field camp.
The application deadline is fast approaching: November 14, 2014.
Interested students should visit http://www.islesofgreece.org and contact Brennan Jordan, brennan.jordan@xxxxxxx
