A Master’s degree that provides in-depth scientific training in the disciplines necessary for the study of the Earth system, in its theoretical, experimental, and technical applications. You will master the scientific method of investigation and the techniques of analysis, management, and modeling of geological data and their applications. You will acquire the expertise needed for the restoration and conservation of the quality of the geological systems from a multidisciplinary perspective. Once completed the Master’s degree, you will be able to work as a freelance geologist or as an employee, even at top management positions, in public agencies and private firms for the planning, design, testing, and monitoring of geological projects and interventions. As well, your qualification allows to access top positions of coordination and direction of technical structures in multidisciplinary general contexts, e.g., energy, resources, materials, hazards, land management, infrastructures.
