MSc Applied Geophysics

To meet the growing demands of the world’s expanding population for natural resources, escalating need for space for living, storage, transportation and other facilities, to resolve problems created by our use/misuse of land and the subsurface, to respond to the effects of climate change and dramatic population growth, to provide critical data for architects and civil engineers, and to forecast the effects/potential of natural disasters, it is necessary to acquire detailed spatio-temporal information of the structure, composition and condition of the outer skin of the Earth. Applied geophysicists provide this essential information through application of non-destructive geophysical methods. 

Applied Geophysics trains students in all geophysical and related aspects of the environmental and engineering investigations of the subsurface and in the exploration and exploitation of geoenergy, including geothermal and hydrocarbon energy. Applied Geophysics programme is a joint programme run by TU Delft, ETH Zurich and RWTH Aachen. The programme adds an international perspective to the career prospects of the students. The Masters in Applied Geophysics is an independent international joint degree. Students will receive a single joint MSc degree in Applied Geophysics upon successful completion of the programme.
