About the Program

The Bachelor's program in Applied Geosciences (180 ECTS) aims to address fundamental questions and provide comprehensive knowledge of geosciences. It explores processes occurring within the Earth, optimal and sustainable use of available resources, and new possibilities for energy generation such as geothermal energy. Scientific thinking and understanding of geodynamic processes inside the Earth and on its surface form the basis for competent problem-solving in areas like finding, processing, and evaluating mineral resources and materials, groundwater development, and energy supply. The program also focuses on planning and evaluating anthropogenic interventions in the geosphere: construction of buildings, disposal of waste and wastewater, assessment of geo-risks, and forward-looking resource management.
