The program is designed to train specialists for a variety of activities in the field of the land management with the use of geographical information systems (GIS). Graduates have an opportunity to build a career in the scientific research, engineering, managerial or teaching sphere.
Students study geological and mining conditions for the development of deposits of solid, liquid and gaseous mineral resources along with issues of modeling, design of geotechnologies and development of the potential of the subsurface resources. The curriculum also involves considering scientific issues of exploration geophysics, mine surveying and subsoil geometry.
