Course content
This academic discipline is dedicated to studying the peculiarities of the functioning of geotechnical systems, their dynamics and evolution, the influence of various environmental factors and economic activity on them man, the essence of the concepts "geoecosystem" and "geotechnological system", as well as formation skills and abilities to solve the main geoecological problems in the plane subject area of ​​nature management, principles and modern methods that are used to solve them. Discipline "Geoecological foundations nature management" is aimed at deepening the theoretical geo-ecological knowledge, formation of special professional, social and personal competencies, accumulation of knowledge about the possibility of critical thinking, analysis and synthesis, the ability to search, process and analyze information from various sources, the ability to determine, formulate and solve problems in the field of nature management.
