Annotation

The M.Sc. Geophysics is a research-oriented programme that offers individual specialisation. Students can choose those lectures from the curriculum of the Institute of Geophysics that best suit their scientific interests. Students are often involved in international research projects that include field studies and offer an opportunity to further the experience already gained during B.Sc. studies. Correspondingly, field data gained in the context of such a research project is often the basis for a Master's thesis. The main target group for the M.Sc. Geophysics are graduates from B.Sc. programmes in or related to geophysics.
