Program details

Overview

The Bachelor of Science in Earth Sciences gives a broad base of foundational knowledge and practice-oriented skills, covering the lithosphere, hydrosphere, cryosphere, atmosphere and anthroposphere. Students learn methods and tools for describing and understanding these systems systematically. The first semester covers general natural science aims, followed by mineralogy, petrology, geology and palaeontology. Regional field work in the Alps and systems-based geological thinking are central, and two bachelor's theses train independent work on Earth science problems. Career options include basic research, applied earth sciences, business, and authorities. The programme runs six semesters, carries 180 ECTS credits and is taught in German.
