Form of study
Full-time form
Prerequisites and co-requisites
The ability to determine the main morphological and morphometric characteristics of the earth's surface; possession of elementary skills of analysis of cartographic materials of various contents.
Course content
The content of the discipline reveals the general patterns and regional differences of the topography of the world. The structure of the discipline consists of two parts. The first part is dedicated to the study of general orographic, morphological and morphometric features of the earth's surface, the factors and conditions of their formation, features of morphostructure and morphosculpture, the spectrum of modern exogenous processes. The second part is regional in its content and is devoted to a detailed analysis of the geological structure and geomorphological features of the territory of the continents.
