The backbone of the SEG Professional Development program is Continuing Education (CE). These short courses, taught by industry experts, cover topics from the fundamental to the leading edge of geophysics. CE courses are held in one of three ways: public courses, section-sponsored courses, and contract (in-house) courses.
Geoprofessions is a term coined by the Geoprofessional Business Association to connote various technical disciplines that involve engineering, earth and environmental services applied to below-ground ("subsurface"), ground-surface, and ground-surface-connected conditions, structures, or formations.
Within the framework of the postgraduate studies program of the Faculty of Geology the following two year courses are offered: Geochemical Environmental Pollution; Stratigraphy - Palaeontology; Mineral Sciences; Geography and Environment; Dynamic Tectonic and Applied Geology; Geophysics - Seismology; Prevention and Management of Natural Disasters
UTIG works with the UT Department of Geological Sciences and Bureau of Economic Geology to provide basic and applied geophysical research opportunities for graduate students at the MA and PhD level through its worldwide programs in solid earth geophysics, marine geology/geophysics, and multi-channel reflection seismology.
The Leibniz Institute for Applied Geophysics (LIAG) originated from the "Geowissenschaftlichen Gemeinschaftsaufgaben" (GGA, common geosciences tasks) department, established in 1948. From 1950 to 1958, the GGA was part of the Office for Soil Research (AfB), where the geological state offices of Lower Saxony and North Rhine-Westphalia assigned ...
Geophysics can be described as all of the following: An academic discipline – branch of knowledge that is taught and researched at the college or university level. . Disciplines are defined (in part), and recognized by the academic journals in which research is published, and the learned societies and academic departments or faculties to which their practitioners
Geophysics (/ ˌ dʒ iː oʊ ˈ f ɪ z ɪ k s /) is a subject of natural science concerned with the physical processes and physical properties of the Earth and its surrounding space environment, and the use of quantitative methods for their analysis.
Exploration geophysics is also used to map the subsurface structure of a region, to elucidate the underlying structures, to recognize spatial distribution of rock units, and to detect structures such as faults, folds and intrusive rocks. This is an indirect method for assessing the likelihood of ore deposits or hydrocarbon accumulations.
