However, the core of knowledge in the B.A. program can serve as a springboard to more advanced work in geological sciences. B.A. graduates electing to conduct graduate studies in geological sciences will need to make up numerous deficiencies in geology and other sciences to bring their background up to the level of a B.S. degree.
