Subject aims expressed by acquired skills and competences
The student can perform basic laboratory analyses of water and determine selected parameters. The obtained data can be processed and compared with the applicable legislation. It can also prepare a rock sample in the form of a microscopic preparation. The student knows the possibilities of using microscopic technique for the identification of rocks and minerals. He can apply the knowledge, he has achieved in microscopic observation.
