Discover how the solid Earth works - investigate the dynamic link between plate tectonics and Earth evolution. This introductory unit is suitable for all students including those wanting to try a natural science. It explores the composition and structure of our planet and the dynamic processes that change our environment. You will become skilled at geoscience techniques that permit detailed study of the Earth and explore via case studies the interplay between geology & topography, volcanoes and volcanic hazards and economic geology.
Field aspect: enjoy eye-opening field trips in tutorial classes around campus and to the Lane Cove National Park, and a day trip across the Blue Mountains (full-day).
