Course content
Educational practice in geological research consists of three stages: 1) preparatory; 2) main – route; 3) final. Each day of the main stage of geological research involves the implementation of field routes, which are usually carried out in the first half of the day, and the camera part, during which processing and systematization of the collected material is carried out and preparation of materials for writing a report, which is carried out in the second half of the working day. Geological routes are carried out on foot in radial directions from the reserve and by bus to remote geological objects. Itineraries are divided into overview (along watersheds and along ravines) and detailed (along the bottoms of ravines and across their extension). During meteorological research, each day of the main stage involves conducting meteorological observations, which are usually carried out in the first half of the day, and the camera part, during which processing and systematization of the collected material is carried out and preparation of materials for writing a report, which is carried out in the second half of the working day day Hydrological studies consist of four stages: 1) preparatory; 2) main – route; 3) expeditionary 4) final. The first stage is a detailed lecture about the research area and its water bodies. Each day of the main stage involves the implementation of field walking or boat routes, which are usually carried out in the first half of the day, and the camera part, during which the processing and systematization of the collected material is carried out and the preparation of materials for writing a report, which is carried out in the second half of the working day . Expeditions are carried out by motor vehicles and boats to water bodies located near the practice base.

Planned learning activities and teaching methods
Practical classes (field), chamber work, individual classes, differentiated assessment.
Assessment methods and criteria
Current evaluation: the number of points received by the student during the internship period is the sum of the points obtained during the evaluation of: 1) oral answers and performance of practical tasks during routes; 2) performance of chamber works 3) participation in the preparation and design of the report. The final evaluation of the component part of the discipline in the form of a differentiated assessment takes place in the form of a defense of the final report. The maximum number of points obtained on the test is 40 points, the minimum number of points added to the current one is 27 points; Conditions for admission to the assessment: students who scored a total of less points than the critical calculation minimum - 20 points, are not allowed to take the assessment. The recommended minimum for admission is 33 points.
