Overview

This course is designed to achieve the overall objectives in the form of learning outcomes that students are expected to acquire upon successful completion of the course. The Geophysical Seminar represents a set of courses that aim to refine the student's talent, this course illustrates the different aspects of the written geophysical report and its abstract, which are derived from the work of the working engineer. It also demonstrates the proper writing of the scientific geophysical report and the correct method of extracting relevant material from the scientific geophysical report for research purposes. This course emphasizes the correct approach in extracting suitable material from the scientific geophysical report for use in research.

Intended learning outcomes

By completing this course, it is expected that the student will be proficient in the following practical and professional skills:
  • Training the student on research and presentation techniques.
  • Exposure to various research projects conducted by fellow students during the seminar period.
  • Acquiring experience in delivering proper scientific presentations for the required project during the academic year.
  • Familiarizing the student with the correct writing method to avoid plagiarism, enables them to publish their work in the future.

Teaching and learning methods

The course is taught using the following methods and techniques:

  • Lectures
  • Seminars
  • Student discussions of research topics with a specialized professor.
  • Students showcase different phases of their final project and engage in conversations with both faculty members and their peers for feedback and discussion.

Methods of assessments

  • First midterm exam 25%.
  • Second midterm exam 25%.
  • Final exam (final presentation) 50%
  • The passing grade is 50% or above
  • The total course assessment is 100%
