What will I learn?
Gain hands-on expertise in studying active volcanoes, covering site selection, tectonic contexts, magma origins, rock analysis, and geochemistry. Connect magma traits to eruption behaviors, interpret seismic, gas, deformation, and remote sensing data, and create precise hazard assessments and reports from reliable international observatory data.
