Elective
1st Cycle Studies
Recommended Prerequisites
The student must have academic knowledge in petrology, stratigraphy and structural geology.
Teaching Methods
Theoretical-practical lectures with presentation and discussion about the study areas. Field work it will be developed under the supervision of teacher.
Learning Outcomes
With this course it is intended that students may develop scientific and technical skills in the domain of the field geology analysis. Based on different outcrop analysis methodologies from different geological contexts (stratigraphic and structural), students should be able to produce, in autonomous way, geological reports properly organized and supported from a scientific point of view, and that correctly translates the detailed geology of the various studied locations.
Work Placement(s)
