What will I learn?
This course offers a clear, hands-on look at Earth's inner makeup, how plates move, and the kinds of boundaries they form. It uses real examples like San Andreas Fault, Andes Mountains, Himalayas, Mid-Atlantic Ridge, and East African Rift. You will pick up skills in research methods, data handling, and writing reports that communicate findings plainly for hazard assessment.
