Profile
The international Master program Geoscience offers three specializations the student has to decide for at the very beginning:Tectonophyscis of OrogenyEnvironmental GeoscienceHydrogeology/HydrochemistryStudents of the specialization Environmental Geosciences will be enabled to work on complex environmental problems on own responsibility. The curriculum for each student will be adapted according to the prior knowledge of the candidates. The main focus lies on the interactions in the atmosphere (including climate and chemistry of atmosphere). The successful candidates will take over responsibility in administration, science, education, and research at universities and research centers. Students of the specialization Hydrogeology/Hydrochemistry will be enabled to cope with hydrologic, hydro-geological and hydro-chemical problems with respect to practical and research aspects on their own responsibility. This covers groundwater exploration and exploitation, surface water issues concerning water chemistry (field and laboratory), numerical modeling of flow, transport and chemical and biochemical reactions in aquatic environments. Utilization of water and water protection is addresses with respect to drinking, irrigation, and industrial water and includes geothermal aspects as well.Students of the specialization Tectonophysis of Orogeny will be enabled to work with methods of structural geology, geo-thermo chronology, geomorphology, remote sensing, and petrology. He will be able to analyze and interpret coupled processes of active and fossil orogenies by using innovative techniques: Focus of education and related research is on active orogenies and coupling processes from mantle to atmosphere.
