A profound knowledge of the Earth’s system is essential to tackle climate change issues. As a Master’s student of Earth Sciences, you will learn to find sustainable solutions for present and future challenges regarding our planet and climate. You will study the natural processes and cycles of the Earth’s system within and between rock, soil, water, living things and air. You will quantify the magnitude and rate of these processes in both space and in time. Earth Sciences students look at the influence of humanity on the Earth’s Systems to address questions such as: What can past and present conditions tell us about the future? How can we use Earth system knowledge to effectively address global challenges such as climate change?

The Applied geology in the master’s study is a technically oriented geological field of study that in necessary extent ensures all the geological research and survey activities. The study is focused mainly on the education of experts in the area of hydrogeology, engineering geology, technical mineralogy and petrography, environmental geochemistry, deposit geology and applied geophysics. The students go through subjects of natural scientific and technical nature, which will enable them to adapt professionally to related and interdisciplinary fields. In theoretical and practical tuition it aims at performing, managing, organizing and evaluating of all types of geological works. The study is permeated with analysis of geological problems and associted technical activities, evaluation of economic and environmental aspects of geological, mining and industrial activities, application of information technology and geoinformatics.
