Geology

The aim of teaching in the follow-up master's program Geology is to provide a master's education in theoretical geological fields, i.e. to consolidate and deepen the education obtained in the previous bachelor's program, to become familiar with a basic scientific practice including activities from data collection using scientific instruments, through their evaluation, to writing scientific publications. The program allows students to focus on mineralogy, igneous and metamorphic petrology, paleontology, historical geology, sedimentary geology, geophysics, structural geology and geotectonics economic geology, geotechnics, hydrogeology and/or environmental geology according to their interests. The program provides the qualification of a geologist prepared for independent work in research, educational and popularization institutions (such as research institutes, universities and other colleges, museums, etc.), as well as qualifications for work in geological companies working in applied geological fields, as well as qualifications for administrative workers administrative bodies and offices managing and controlling the work of companies (e.g. departments of construction, environment, mining office, etc.). The program provides education in both full-time and combined forms.
