The State University of New York at Stony Brook has established a new Earth and Space Sciences Department. In its first year, the new department will offer an undergraduate major in earth sciences with a space‐sciences major added next year or thereafter. By September 1967 the department hopes to occupy a projected space‐sciences building, and by the following September intends to offer graduate programs leading to the doctorate. Fields of study will include astronomy, geology, meteorology, geophysics, astrophysics, geochemistry, and oceanography.
