Professional introduction
Geochemistry is a discipline that studies the chemical composition and evolution of the earth and its subsystems, including parts of the universe. The main studies are on the chemical composition of the earth (including some celestial bodies); on the mechanisms and conditions of chemical activity in the geological process, on the symbiotic combination of elements, on the form of their endowment and on the transport and circulation of elements, etc。
Aiming
The geochemistry profession develops basic theoretical, basic knowledge and basic skills in geochemistry and geology, receives basic training in basic research, applied basic research and technology development, has better scientific literacy and initial teaching, research, development and management capabilities, is capable of geochemistry research or teaching in scientific institutions, schools, production, testing, technical management in resources, energy, materials, environment, basic engineering, etc., and senior specialists in administrative management。
Training requirements
The students are mainly trained in basic theory and basic knowledge of geochemistry, trained in scientific thinking and scientific practice in basic research, applied basic research and technological development, and mastered basic skills in field and indoor geology and geochemistry。
