Prerequisites
1. Introduction to geology study, origin of the Earth, Earth building, geophysical model of Earth internal structure, Earth core, mantel and crust: composition, physical a chemistry properties, characteristic of lithosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere and biosphere – importance to life and human. 2. Principles of plate tectonics, plate boundary, subduction and collision zone processes, plate boundary and seismicity, hot spots. 3. Endogenous geological processes: igneous and metamorphic processes, diastrophism. 4. Exogenous processes: weathering, groundwater and surface water, fluvial processes, glaciers and glacial processes, aeolian environment, mass movement activity, humans activity on the geological evolution of the Earth. 7.
