Structural Geology Course
Build essential Structural Geology skills for careers in geology and geography. Learn precise field measurements of faults and folds, drafting balanced cross-sections, analysing stereonets for kinematics, interpreting tectonic settings, and crafting clear, evidence-based reports for mapping and exploration projects in real-world scenarios.

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 tectonic patterns.
