To advance knowledge and understanding in carbonate systems by providing students and geoscientists with a comprehensive education in carbonate geology, geophysics, and geochemistry and thereby transforming them into experts in carbonates. The certificate program is designed for working professionals who want a specialization in this field. The goal is to provide first-rate continuing education to professionals or geology students who want to become specialists in carbonate geology.
Learning Outcome 1: Students will gain a broad knowledge of carbonate geology and an awareness of scientific research in their subject areas.
Learning Outcome 2: Students will learn how to incorporate acquired knowledge and available data and tools into the workflow of applied projects.
Learning Outcome 3: Students will learn oral and written communication skills, and will be able to effectively communicate and defend their ideas and findings to peers, managers, and administrators.
