General Geology Course
Gain mastery in fundamental geology for real-world applications: interpret rocks and maps, reconstruct histories of mountain basins, evaluate risks from landslides, floods, and earthquakes, and transform tectonic and landform data into solid, evidence-based advice for infrastructure projects. This course builds practical skills for geologists working on roads, dams, and hazard assessments in rugged terrains.

What will I learn?
This course equips you with essential skills to analyse rocks, stratigraphy, and land surface processes in mountain basins. You will learn to interpret maps, logs, and remote sensing data, reconstruct geological histories, and assess risks for roads and small dams. Develop expertise in evaluating earthquake hazards, slope stability, and site suitability to deliver reliable recommendations for practical projects.
