About the programme
Geology is the science of the origins, composition, and evolution of the Earth over 5 billion years, and the processes that change the Earth and form the foundation for our existence.
Geology-Geoscience is a research- and field-based MSc programme concerned with geological materials, processes, and structures, as well as the study of Earth’s history and of life on Earth.
The programme is offered in English.
