From the calendar

Official source · University of Toronto Mississauga

We discuss the age and origin of the Earth, the nature of its deep interior, the origin of mountains, oceans, earthquakes and volcanoes, and show how these features are related in a unifying theory known as Plate Tectonics, that explains how the evolution of the Earth's surface is driven by internal processes. Practicals will include laboratory exercises devoted to the understanding and recognition of minerals, rocks and geological structures.

What this opens up

3 courses list ERS101H5 as a prerequisite

The other 1 have no page yet. Listing a course here means it names ERS101H5 among its prerequisites — often as one of several ways to satisfy the same requirement, so this is what ERS101H5 makes available, not what it alone guarantees.
