What will I learn?
This course equips you with hands-on skills to interpret rock layers, use relative dating principles, and build accurate timelines from geological field observations. You will spot intrusions, unconformities, terraces, and vital sedimentary features, then combine fossils, radiometric data, and area correlations to produce solid stratigraphic analyses and reports.
