What will I learn?
This course equips you with hands-on abilities to interpret rock layers, use relative dating principles, and build precise timelines from geological field observations. You will spot intrusions, unconformities, terraces, and vital sedimentary features, then combine fossil records, radiometric dating, and area-wide correlations to produce solid, evidence-based stratigraphic analyses.
