理学士（荣誉）地球物理学

地球物理培训和教育可以帮助您发展碳氢化合物，矿物勘探和相关行业的地球科学知识。该计划是根据公认的行业内合格的地球物理学家的需求而开发的，由我们的地球科学学院提供，该课程使学生具备在碳氢化合物，矿物勘探或相关服务行业或更广泛的地球物理学研究领域的职业技能。这个独特的计划旨在使学生接触现代地球物理学的理论和实践，并侧重于前沿技术，以了解从近地表到深层内部的地球的结构，动力学和组成。内容基础广泛，综合性强，重点放在地球物理数据分析和解释的定量方面。
Geophysics is the study of the Earth from the near-surface to the deep interior through the use of quantitative physical methods. On this programme, you study forces such as gravity and magnetism and learn about how these forces act on the Earth's interior, crust, oceans and the atmosphere.<br><br>On this programme, you will learn to combine a deep knowledge of geology and physics and apply practical field-based skills to areas ranging from hydrocarbon exploration to plate tectonics and from environmental services to archaeological excavations.<br><br>This unique programme is designed to expose students to the theory and practice of modern geophysics, with an emphasis on cutting edge techniques for understanding the structure, dynamics and composition of the Earth from the near-surface to the deep interior. The content is broad-based and integrative with a strong focus on the quantitative aspects of geophysical data analysis and interpretation.<br><br>This programme specifically addresses the recognised need for qualified geophysicists within the hydrocarbons industry, by equipping students with the particular skills for careers in the hydrocarbon, minerals exploration or associated service industries. While traditionally, graduates from the University of Aberdeen have been attracted to careers in the oil and gas industry, many others have gone on to work in to other diverse areas including mineral exploration, environmental geophysics or associated service industries.
