Masters in Geochemistry at Stockholm University
The Department of Geology and Geochemistry offers three Master degree programmes: Marine Geoscience, Geology, Geochemistry. Each programme comprises two years of study at the Master level. The introductory course (30 hp) is given jointly for all three programmes and consists of four blocks which focus on methodology, pedagogy, statistics and scientific writing. The individual project can vary between 30 and 60 hp, therefore the number of optional courses offered by the Department may vary between 60 and 90 hp.
arine Geosciences has an additional compulsory course of 15 hp. Therefore the number of optional courses in Marine Geosciences only amounts to between 15 and 45 hp.
A total of 15 hp can be obtained through reading courses given by the other programmes, by other departments at Stockholm University, by other universities in Sweden or abroad. Please contact us for more information and for advice on the choice of courses in Sweden and abroad.
Optional courses are chosen together with the teachers who are responsible for the different master programmes: Jan Backman (Marine Geoscience), Alasdair Skelton (Geology) and Patrick Crill (Geochemistry).
The three Master programmes can lead on to a research education in Marine Geoscience, Geology and Geochemistry. Read more about courses within the three programmes: www.geo.su.se/utbildning
