WHY STUDYING GEOLOGY ?

• To see how the world is made and how it continues to evolve
• Study the composition of the earth & the formation of the earth topographic features 
• To explain the processes that form and change our planet
• To study the earth structures and its interdependent with other systems ( human, hidrology, atmospheric, planetary systems etc)
• Realize the geological phenomenons, processes and materials
• To predict its dangerous movements/activities (earthquake, volcanic eruptions, tsunami, landslides etc)
• To find and make use of earth valueable resources (minerals, oil & gas, coal, aggregates etc)
• Study how to prevent contamination of water, soil and how to stabilize a slope.
• Geology is a study of the earth. We make use of this knowledge to undercover its history, to understand its behaviour, application of this knowledge for development, economy and to sustain a stable environment.
