The program aims to develop a full range of knowledge in the field of "smart digital geology" - from understanding the evolution of the Earth and practical skills in geological prospecting to the development of digital equipment and the use of geographic information systems and AI to process large geodata. There will be no significant “black spots” in modern applied earth sciences for graduates.

BENEFITS OF THE PROGRAM:
Everyone who has any engineering or earth science education can apply for this program. What matters is their desire to intensively acquire universal competencies in the field of “digital geosciences”.
If undergraduates have good study results, we guarantee them the scientific and industrial work  in the Siberian School of Geosciences during their studies, gaining experience and earnings.
Educational practice takes place at the unique geological test site Chernorud near the Lake Baikal - a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The program is a unique combination of Engineering, IT and Geosciences with the result that students spend time both in research labs and outdoors.
The study cases students are working on are very knowledge-intensi

The field of GIS technologies in the geological industry is interesting, modern, containing many unsolved problems and, importantly, provided with the financial resource. This makes the graduates of the master's program "IT in Geology" in demand at the mining and geological industry and in the academic sector in positions such as: GIS Engineer, Data Processing Specialist, Geological Team Leader, Operator of UAV for ERS, Geoscientist.
