Course objectives
The course is devoted mainly to the students of geology (master program). The main goal is the overview of hygrogeological survey methods and measurement techniques, methods of measurement and interpreting of datas
Learning outcomes
Student will be able to: - process and analyze hydrogeological data;
- interpret outputs of hydrogeological methods;
- apply hydrogeological methods to a practical problem;
- analyze selected scientific knowledge in hydrogeology;
- propose and explain a suitable research method for hydrogeological purposes.
