The aim of the program is to train geologists and geophysical engineers who have the knowledge of geology, geophysics, and geoinformatics and skills necessary for the prospecting and exploration of geological structures and mineral resources, the assessment of mineral resources and reserves, conduct environmental geological surveys and delineate environmental pollution.

Specializations: Geological engineering, Geophysical engineering.

Analytical technics in mineralogy and petrology

Geological interpretation and prospecting

Geophysical interpretation and prospecting

Legal and economic studies for mining and geology

Elective course I: Geoelectric lectureship/ Geostatistics/ Seismic college/ Well-logging college

Elective course II: Introduction to the English Geophysical Literature/ Engineering programming

Curriculum

The expected area of utilization of professional qualifications is represented by mining and exploration companies, research institutes, and specialized authorities that deal with the management, planning, and regulation of mineral raw materials.

In addition to the knowledge of earth sciences, the strong engineering training makes the students graduating here to be specialized in mineral exploration and exploitation as well as supervision of the applied earth science directions and technologies.
