Special features regarding teaching in the bachelor's degree programme

Within the various geotechnical specialisations, basic techniques, special methods and knowledge of, among other things, hydrogeology, applied geochemistry, engineering geology and applied geophysics are taught. The coursework includes various teaching and learning formats, such as project and site work in small groups. The results are presented in lectures and presented in written reports. Interdisciplinary courses promote interpersonal skills and professional communication.

Special features regarding teaching in the master's programmes

The combination of theory and practice is the focus of the master's degree programme. Independent work on site projects and project studies focus on current socially relevant topics, allowing students to develop, implement and present their own research ideas during the master's degree programme to provide them with research-based learning. This teaches students practical project planning and research methods, taking account of the individual disciplines and their complex, mutual relationships.
