The course aims 1) to provide methods for the study of the geological characteristics of the urban areas, identifying those geological processes whose effects could create problems not only at the regional and local levels (hazard and risk), but could affect also the condition of execution of engineering works; 2) to identify the geological processes that drove the development human activities (renewable and not renewable resources); 3) to make the students capable to plan, conduct and understand the data from underground explorations.

Type of delivery of the course
The program of the course will be carried out with frontal lessons characterized by a strong interactivity during which the active participation of the students in required also thematic insights proposed by the teacher. To support the teaching, some discussions will be launched to facilitate the identification of the connections between the various topics covered. It’s planned an activity on field.Attendance
Attendance is in the classroom and a one-day excursion to the City of Rome is plannedType of evaluation
The expected methods of ascertaining the knowledge and skills acquired are: 1) the formulation of a essay on a topic of the program chosen by the student, 2) the presentation of the essay results with the support of power point. The ability to understand, to argue an answer and to defend the results achieved with the work for the essay will be evaluated. teacher profile teaching materials
