Study programme Applied Geology

A graduate of the field of study for the doctoral degree “Applied Geoogy” is able to connect scientific methods of work with the latest practical knowledge in the area of applied geology. He/she is able to occupy positions in research and scientific institutions and organisations solving difficult problems in the areas of applied geological disciplines and also in the state administration.

The study for the doctoral degree in the field “Applied Geology” ensures the preparation of researchers in the area of geological sciences and is highly technology- and application-oriented. Emphasis is put on obtaining the common theoretical base in connection with the area of Earth sciences. This study creates preconditions for familiarising with applied geological disciplines, especially with applied mineralogy and petrography, hydrogeology, deposit geology, engineering geology, drilling technologies and geophysics. Great emphasis is laid on the area of geological information science, planning and evaluation of results of geological operations, economics and management in exploration and industrial geology and problems of environmental protection.
