The earth is our home. The development of human civilization as we know it goes hand in hand with how we have used and continue to reshape the planet. This course will introduce the basic knowledge of geology and methods of engineering geology to help people protect and utilize our earth more effectively.
This geology course consists of two sections: basic geology and engineering geology. The basic geology section includes: formation and evolution of the earth, common rocks and minerals, internal and external dynamic geological process, geological ages, geological structures, geological maps and other basic knowledge of the earth’s geology. The engineering geology section includes engineering geological natures of groundwater, rock and soil, stability analysis of slope, surrounding rock of underground cavern and rock foundation, geological analysis of reservoir project and some field investigation methods and techniques etc.
Geology and Geological Engineering are two of the most important basic subjects that underpin engineering specialties, such as hydraulic engineering, geotechnical engineering and geological engineering. Engineering professionals will find this course particularly interesting and useful, but anyone with an interest in learning how to protect and continue to reshape our planet is welcome to enroll!
Geology and engineering geology is an important professional basic course for engineering majors such as hydraulic engineering, geotechnical engineering, and geological engineering. The main contents of Tsinghua University's "Geology and Engineering Geology" include: basics of geology and engineering geology. Among them: the basic part of geology includes the formation and evolution of the earth, common rocks and minerals, internal and external dynamic geological processes, geological time, geological maps, geological structures, etc., which provides students with solid basic geological knowledge and can also serve as a guide for geological enthusiasts. Provides basic knowledge of geology; the engineering geology part includes the engineering geological properties of groundwater, rock and soil, and some specialized engineering geological problem analysis principles and methods, etc., providing students with a solid engineering geological foundation and rich applications.
We are confident: you can understand the charm of geology!
