IDEA LEAGUE a focused network of leading European universities of science and technology
Why Applied Geophysics?
Uppermost few kilometres of the Earth include essential resources such as oil, minerals and groundwater
Optimum management of these resources requires de-tailed subsurface knowledge
Major building projects, safe disposal of dangerous wa-ste and natural hazard prevention rely on precise and reliable underground models
Applied geophysics offers powerful tools for non-de-structive testing of the Earth at scales ranging from centimetres to kilometres
Benefits from three institutions
The Master of Science in Applied Geophysics is a two-year programme offered by three of Europes leading science and technology institutions: Delft Technical University, ETH Zrich and RWTH Aachen University
Programme builds on the strength and complementary expertise of the three universities
Enhanced student mobility improves chances of pursuing careers in competitive global industries
Broadens students perspective through experiencing different cultures
Provides excellent job opportunities
Live and learn in 3 European cities
TU Delfts principal strength is in hydrocarbon exploration and management
Delft offers a wonderful blend of ancient canals lined with merchant houses and modern architecture
ETH Zrichs principal strength is in engineering and environmental geosciences
Zrich has a natural beauty for all seasons - inviting for a swim in the lake in the summer and nearby ski resorts in the winter
RWTH Aachens principal strength is in geothermal exploration and basin modelling
Aachen is situated on the rim of the wooded Eifel and Hautes Franges and offers both medieval and modern flair
