They get familiar with basic issues of non-living materials, research methodology and geological history (especially the youngest periods) of Earth. In the archaeological part they gain knowledge of material culture sources of prehistoric and middle-age settlement of central Europe (especially Moravia). Graduates get also familiar with geological and archaeological methods of landscape research, its documentation including documentation of archaeological artifacts.

- explain and use principal geological terminology
- recognise principal minerals, rocks, fossils used in prehistory
- use geological research methods including geological documentation of archaeological localities, sampling, data processing etc
- solve independently particular archaeological issues using geological methods, interpret results of the research and present the information in written and oral form
- independently study scientific literature written in Czech and foreign languages
- utillise common methods of landscape and laboratory practice and use PC for data processing
- present results of the analyses of landscape and laboratory data in written and oral form
The standard duration of the studies is six semesters. To get admitted to the final state exam, students must obtain a total of 180 credits for compulsory, selective and elective courses of both fields.
