What Will I Learn?
Acquire hands-on skills to precisely measure faults, folds, and bedding planes, evaluate data reliability, and create robust field datasets. Master constructing conceptual cross-sections, using stereonets effectively, classifying fold types, analysing fault movements, and piecing together tectonic histories. Conclude by producing professional reports that tie local features to broader regional tectonics.
