Osaamistavoitteet (voimassa 01.08.2018-31.07.2020): 

The course aims to increase students’ knowledge and understanding of past and ongoing geological processes that can affect to engineered infrastructures and to the environment and provide them skills and knowledge how to apply this knowledge to engineering projects. They should have a knowledge of the physical, chemical, hydrological and mechanical properties of rocks and should have knowledge of investigation methods for determining rock mass properties and the strengths and weaknesses of such methods. Students should be able to propose site investigation programs and analyze the results in order to select favorable sites to purposes of groundwater extraction, rock aggregate production, landfills and waste management. Students should also be introduced to analysis of spatial and directional data. They should be able to construct site geological models by GIS and spatial modelling software tools and be able to interpret data represented on stereonets.
