The students will learn how to approach a given research question through fieldwork, sampling and/or measurement strategies. Project work will include field excursions and the possibility for the students to actively employ specific laboratory measurement techniques. Throughout the course the students will learn how to use computer-based analysis and presentation tools, including basic programming.
