Top-level university research and education center in Earth Sciences
Geosciences at Charles University represent a vibrant and dynamically evolving branch of the Faculty of Science, focusing on the fundamental issues related to the evolution of our planet: from tectonic, metamorphic, and magmatic processes in the Earth´s crust through biotic and climatic changes in the geologic past to processes on the surface of the Earth and environmental pollution. This broad scope provides a solid background for solving complex geotechnical problems such as tunnel design, landslide monitoring, mitigation of geohazards, and geophysical prospecting.
