The Master of Science in Geology, was designed to train professionals with advanced knowledge in the different areas of earth sciences, developing skills that allow them to face challenges in highly complex investigations.
The curriculum is created so that students focus exclusively on the thesis work, acquiring advanced knowledge available from all departments within the Faculty of Physical and Mathematical Sciences (FCFM) of the University of Chile, which will provide them with an enrichment in the development of their work of thesis, as well as to face the challenges presented by in the private sector in any of the fields of Earth Sciences.
The main objective of our program is to train human resources with in-depth knowledge in the field of geology, with the ability to perform creatively both in higher education and in the development of scientific and applied research.
Our graduates should:
The final thesis must be an original contribution to the geological sciences, either from the point of view of the application of methodological aspects or of the generation of the geological knowledge necessary for the resolution of a specific problem.
