DATA
Geology, the science of earth has contributed immensely in the construction industry, in the steel manufacturing industry, in energy resources, in environmental management, in petroleum and groundwater exploration to mention but just a few. With the current scientific and technological advances, including space missions, geology has its major role today and in the coming future. Since its inception in 1991 through this course a significant number of professional geologists have been trained and working in the various government institutions, universities and in the private sectors.
