Full-time form

1. Knowledge of physical and political map of the world, basics of general structural and historical geology, paleontology, petrology and minerals

Introduction to the principles of structural-geological zoning of continents and oceans. The concept of geological region is described in detail. Characteristics of the geological region is based on the synthesis of available geological and geophysical information. The structure of the geological regions of Eurasia, Australia, Antarctica, North and South America, and the oceans is consistently considered. It is emphasized that knowledge of the geological structure of the regions is the basis for predicting the location of minerals and determining promising areas of exploration for various types of minerals

Lectures, practical classes, independent work of students

The control is carried out according to the modular rating system and includes: practical work (where students must demonstrate the quality of acquired knowledge and solve problems using the methods and tools outlined by the teacher), independent practical work (where students must demonstrate the quality of acquired knowledge and solve problems without limiting tools and techniques for solving the problem) and conducting 3 written modular tests. The final assessment is conducted in the form of a written and oral exam
