Full-time form

1. Theoretical and practical research foundations in geochemistry 2. Theoretical and practical research foundations in analytical techniques (element and isotope analysis).

The aim of the discipline is to provide an introduction to the main modern concepts of Geochemistry within the fields of research analytical methods, isotope systems analysis, geochemical modeling of the magmatic and ore-generated hydrothermal systems. Main considered themes are: 1) approaches and concepts of modern research analytical methods; 2) approaches and concepts of modern isotope systems analysiі; 3) approaches and concepts of modern geochemical modeling methods; 4) selection of the optimal methods for analytical research, isotope systems analysis as well as effective methods and procedures for geochemical modeling.

Lectures, seminars, self-studying work of student.

Semester grading: - two control tests (min 12 / max 20 grades); - six presentations (min 38 / max 60 grades). Final assessment: - modular test in form of the written test (min 12 / max 20 grades) Final evaluation is in the form of a final test. The total score of discipline (max 100 grades) is defined as the sum for the systematic work during the semester. Final evaluation based on the results of the student's work throughout the semester. For students who have obtained total grades less than critically-calculated minimum of 40 grades repeated control test is obligatory for taking the test. Grading: For admission to the final grading it is obligatory: 1) to pass two control tests; 2) to prepare six oral reports, which can be presented in the form of presentations and abstracts.
