Prospects. Career & Employment
Graduates of the educational program will be in demand as employees of such organizations and enterprises as: specialized design organizations working in the field of geoinformation mapping, updating maps using aerospace survey materials, landscape design, spatial planning, landscape monitoring, environmental impact assessment, environmental expertise and control, environmental audit, rehabilitation of land and water landscapes in the areas of exploration and production of ore and non-metallic, as well as combustible minerals; Federal and regional nature protection and management bodies; Federal and regional institutions; government and management bodies, municipalities; educational organizations of basic general, secondary general, secondary vocational and higher education. Environmental geology is a broad field that includes such things as site assessment, site remediation, groundwater geology, surface water hydrology, and ensuring that various organizations comply with the relevant environmental regulations. A geology degree sets you up for a career within the energy, environmental or engineering sectors and related work experience can help to give you the edge when job hunting. Possible Careers for Geology Majors: Engineering Geologists, Hydrogeologist, Geophysicist, Geochemist, Oceanographers, Seismologists, Paleontologists, Petroleum geologists, etc.
Why is it important to pursue a higher education?
The training is carried out in two areas - "Geography" and "Ecology and nature management". The purpose of the educational program is to train highly qualified specialists in the field of landscape planning, protection and management, organization and monitoring using geoinformation technologies and aerospace research methods. The program is aimed at an in-depth study of the theoretical and methodological patterns of development and differentiation of the landscape sphere, modern landscape and environmental problems at the global, regional and zonal levels, the solution of which is relevant from scientific and applied positions. Graduates are prepared to participate in complex expeditionary and desk research on the problems of urban and territorial development at various levels, to conduct geographical and environmental expertise of various types of projects, comprehensive regional diagnostics, territorial and landscape planning, design and forecasting, and social standardization.
