Full-time form

1. Successful mastering of the course "Information Technology" 2. Possession of basic skills in working with a personal computer. 3. Understanding of current issues of the geological industry.

Within the framework of the discipline, current trends in the field of informatization of the geological field are considered, and a retrospective analysis of this phenomenon is given. There is a wide list of modern application software (both commercial and open), which is actively used in various fields of geology. The basic basics of the Python programming language are being studied. A significant amount of classroom hours and hours of independent work are devoted to practical work on programming in the Python environment. Students acquire theoretical knowledge, practical skills and abilities necessary for: subject statement of the problem, its formalization and algorithmization, implementation in the form of a script or a separate application, testing of the developed program, derivation of results for further analysis and thematic interpretation.

Lectures, practical training, self-study

- modular test 1 (on the theoretical basis of formalization and algorithmization of geological problems and basic programming skills in Python) provides for an oral survey (maximum - 15 points) and control over the implementation of practical tasks (maximum - 15 points); - modular test work 2 (on the software implementation of the geological task in the Python environment) involves monitoring the implementation of practical tasks (maximum - 10 points) and evaluation of the software implementation of the geological task (maximum - 20 points); - the final assessment is carried out in the form of quality control of the program implementation of the proposed examination tasks (4 tasks of 10 points each).
