12 Short courses in Geology in Europe

The Summer School aims to provide students with the basic concepts of Python software and, through practical exercises on a computer running Python, to address some of the most common applications in the field of geosciences.

Fiber-optic sensing has rapidly emerged as a transformative tech for monitoring/understanding many geological, geophysical & environmental processes. By exploiting existing TC infrastructure or purpose-built cables, it enables high-resolution measurements across large spatial/temporal scales, opening new perspectives in environmental monitoring, natural hazard assessment & geophysical exploration.

This is an introductory-level course of Machine Learning. The aim of this course is to provide an overview of the main machine learning methods and their application to geophysical, geochemical, geological and environmental data.

The School of Earth and Environmental Sciences at the University of St Andrews runs a 5-week Geology Field Camp in Scotland committed to delivering in-depth training capitalising on a rich geological heritage and unparalleled opportunity to experience geology in the field.

The Department of Geosciences at UniLaSalle offers students an unparalleled opportunity to complete geology fieldwork with this Geological Field School in France.

UCL's Simplified Structural Assessment for Seismic Fragility Analysis online short course will teach you simplified structural assessment approaches for developing seismic fragility functions (also called fragility curves).

The Geology course offered by Warnborough College will help you learn the fundamentals of geology.

Develop your skills in sedimentology, stratigraphy, and diagenesis in this flexible Applied Sedimentology online short course at the University of Aberdeen.

Find out how planetary scientists use geology and geophysics to understand the formation, evolution, and properties of terrestrial planets with this Earth and Planetary Surface and Internal Processes course at the University of Aberdeen.

Explore how extreme geological events have shaped Earth and what challenges future events might pose to our plane with Extreme Geological Events at Cardiff University by FutureLearn.

In this Astrobiology, Biogeochemistry and Geobiology for Explorers short course at the University of Aberdeen, you’ll join expert astrobiologists and planetary scientists to explore the origins and likely extent of life on Earth and in space.

Develop your understanding of geophysical techniques, and learn to apply them to solve near-surface environmental problems. In this Near Surface and Environmental Geophysics course at the University of Aberdeen, you’ll get an introduction to the methods of collecting near-surface geophysical data.
