Course objectives
The objective of the course/practice is to enable students to get practical experiences during a short-term stay at an institution which employs geographers. The objectives of these institutions are varied (physical and human geography, as well as cartography) and reflect contemporary broad scope of the discipline. Selection of an institution depends on preferences of the student, and on willingness of the institution to accept students for practice. Students could settle their stay independently in an institution corresponding with their research interests, or they could choose from a list provided by the Institute of Geography. In each case they should consult their selection with the course tutor. The list of institutions is modified on a yearly basis. The specific date and workload of the stay is a matter of settlement between the student and the selected institution. The length of the practice is two weeks.
