Study programme objectives

»	Acquiring of basic geological knowledge in order to educate geological engineers for independent and quality work in the area of fundamental and applied geological disciplines;
»	Providing for independent performance of regional geological research in the field of stratigraphy, sedimentology, petrology, remote sensing, tectonics, environmental protection, geoheritage, geoinformation technologies and other applied geological disciplines;
»	Enabling students to understand the properties of geological formations, using modern methodology of field-cabinet-laboratory studies;
»	Developing an engineering way of thinking and training for creative and professional solving of engineering and other professional geological problems while following modern trends in geological profession and science;
»	Education of a graduate engineer with a high level of understanding of geological processes, phenomena and mechanisms of evolution of geological systems, as a quality basis for continuing further academic education (master and doctoral studies);
»	Providing students to understand regional geological issues from the aspect of surface and subsurface geological settings, independent geological research of all levels of detail and presentation of results in the form of reports and geological maps of various scale;
»	Qualifying for planning and participation in geological projects of fundamental and applied geological disciplines, as well as quality presentation of the obtained results in the field of regional geology;
»	Practical training of undergraduate students for participation in team work, as well as for planning and organizing exploratory geological works through several fieldwork courses and professional practice;

Professional status

Students who have completed this study program are able to:

»	understand and apply basic geological knowledge in various fields of fundamental and applied geological research;
