Second-year students of the undergraduate study programme in Crisis Management participated in a field class in Environmental Geochemistry, led by Prof. Sanja Kalambura, PhD.
As part of the practical exercises, students had the opportunity to visit the Petrographic Collection of the Natural History Museum, one of the largest in Europe, featuring an impressive collection of more than five million rock and mineral specimens.

Through expert guidance and an interactive approach, students deepened their understanding of the geochemical characteristics of rocks and minerals, linking theoretical knowledge acquired during lectures with its practical application.
This form of learning enables students, through direct experience and observation in a real environment, to better understand the processes and phenomena they study, while also developing their critical thinking skills and ability to apply knowledge in practice.

Fieldwork represents an essential component of the educational process, as it allows students to acquire competences and skills relevant to their future professional roles in environmental management and crisis response.
In doing so, it directly supports Learning Outcomes 3 and 4 of the course, which include understanding geochemical processes and the ability to apply them in analysing and solving real-world problems.
