The Master of Science in Applied Geosciences provides students with theoretical and technical expertise in hydrogeology, petroleum geology, and mineral resources geology. The hydrogeology specialisation prepares students to design pumping and recharging wells, apply analytical and numerical modelling to groundwater flow, learn hydrogeological testing methods and their applications, and apply geological field methods to groundwater challenges. In the petroleum geology specialisation, students learn approaches to seismic modelling, seismic attributes and quantitative interpretation techniques, gain 2D and 3D seismic interpretation experience in a workstation environment, master approaches to field development planning and production for an oil/gas accumulation, assess and manage reserves of an oil/gas field, and to learn principles of basin modelling and the main functionalities of basin modelling software, as well as understand and interpret geochemical information and evaluate geochemical technical reports. Students get also an overview of the major techniques for down-hole logging, their physical basis, with visualization and interpretation of data and results. The mineral resources geology specialisation prepares students to master sampling methods and analytical tools for the exploration of mineral resources, learn the methods for exploring natural and industrial minerals, interpret mineral exploration data and to understand technical reports, as well as the interpretation of geoelectrical, gravity and geomagnetic data at the scale of mineral deposits.
