Full-time form

Knowledge of theoretical foundations of physics, mathematics and geophysical research methods.

The course focuses on the physical and mathematical foundations of gravimetry, the structure and operation of modern gravimetric equipment. The basic principles of solving direct and inverse gravimetry problems are considered. The methods of qualitative and quantitative interpretation of gravimetric data are described, and the basics of primary processing of field gravimetric data are provided. The course also covers the study of gravimetry applications, the combination of gravity surveying with other geophysical methods in various surveys, prospecting and exploration of mineral resources, and the solution of engineering and geological problems in environmental studies.

Lectures, laboratory classes and independent work of students.

The control is carried out according to the module-rating system and includes: 8 laboratory works (where applicants must demonstrate the quality of their knowledge and solve the tasks, using the methods and means specified by the teacher) and 3 written module tests. The final assessment is conducted in the form of a written test. An applicant is not allowed to take the test if he or she scored less than 40 points during the semester.
