The general objectives of the degree course in Geological Sciences are to offer: a solid basic knowledge of the main sectors of Geological Sciences, a personal capacity for choice and action in the methods and techniques of the related fields of scientific investigation, an adequate preparation for address and assimilate forthcoming scientific and technological advances and knowledge to properly address the fundamental processes of the exogenous and endogenous Earth system.
The degree course aims to define, characterize and understand current and past events, predict evolutionary scenarios and plan human interventions. Geologists read the records of the Earth's evolution imprinted in rocks and fossils, compare them with what is happening before our eyes and plan the human impact on Nature, since any intervention on the territory involves a modification of the superficial functioning of the Earth System.
The course aims to train graduates with:

good knowledge of fundamentals of Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Computer Science which then allow to quantify and interpret the geological processes and the structure of the Earth;
solid basic preparation in all sectors of Geological Sciences in order to be able to recognize and interpret the natural mechanisms that characterize the geological environment;
analytical skills in field geology, aimed at basic geological cartography in various territories;
laboratory analytical skills, aimed at the characterization of geomaterials and their behavior;
technical skills for the use of tools for basic geological surveys;
ability to collect and process data with general and specific computer methods of Geological Sciences;
ability to apply mathematical models able to simulate geophysical and geological processes.
