Geology and Geophysics | Master's programme

How will we re­act to the changes of our planet?

In the Master's Programme in Geology and Geophysics, you learn to address pressing questions concerning our planet's evolution, its role as the source of raw materials, and various environmental issues on multiple temporal and spatial scales. 

Sustaining the growing population on our dynamic planet requires a deep understanding of the Earth's geological and geophysical processes and how they interact with the atmosphere, hydrosphere, and biota. Themes include, for example, hydrogeology, environmental geology, palaeontology, palaeoclimatology and -ecology, mineralogy and petrology, economic geology, and solid earth geophysics, offering an opportunity to personalize and focus your expertise within the broad field of geosciences.
