This course will develop the necessary skills for the understanding of the basic principles in geology and earth science, - making the link between the earth's dynamic processes and systems, and the physical properties and forms reflected at Earth's surface and below the ground.

You will learn to identify minerals, rocks, and, geological structures, and analyse/make initial predictions related to their geo-engineering properties. During the practical sessions you will learn the basics required to read and produce geological maps, cross-sections, and reports.

This course teaches the geology fundaments required in an Engineering Geological Site Investigation.
