Master program:
Structural Geology and Tectonics deformation deformation processes in rocks structure of the Earth strength and structure of rocks tectonic mechanical processes
As deformation of rocks is such a fundamental process within geology, a master's degree in structural geology and tectonics will qualify you for a wide range of jobs after graduation. Examples are careers in the petroleum industry, mining industry, consulting companies and public administration (road and tunnel construction, waste storage, geotechnical engineering and groundwater- and natural hazards management)

Sedimentology Paleontology and
Stratigraphy earth surface processes weathering, erosion, transport, dispersal and deposition sediment burial and diagenesis sedimentary basin analysis
Are you interested in sediment and sedimentary rock formation, the history and development of the Earth? Do you want to work with micro- and macropaleontology and the development of the life itself? Are you interested in what fossils can tell us about former life forms on Earth?
