What will I learn?
This Igneous and Metamorphic Petrology Course provides practical skills to identify rocks in the field and under the microscope, interpret textures and fabrics, and distinguish intrusive from extrusive bodies. Work with minerals, phase diagrams, thermobarometry, and geochemical data to reconstruct tectonothermal histories and prepare clear technical reports.
