Structural Geology Course
Build essential structural geology expertise for careers in geology and geography. Master precise field measurements of faults and folds, construct balanced cross-sections, analyse kinematics with stereonets, interpret tectonic patterns, and deliver clear, evidence-based reports ideal for mapping projects and resource exploration in real-world settings.

What will I learn?
Gain hands-on skills in Structural Geology to accurately measure faults, folds, and bedding planes, evaluate data reliability, and create solid field datasets. Master constructing conceptual cross-sections, using stereonets, classifying folds, analysing fault movements, and piecing together tectonic histories. End by producing professional reports linking local features to broader regional tectonics.
