• Mine affairs (mineralogy, petrology, tectonics, structural geology, geochemistry, paleontology, historical geology, hydrogeology, economic geology, metal deposits, non-metallic deposits and exploration of mineral deposits),
• Oil and Gas,
• Engineering Geology,
• Soil science,
• Trained in geologic mapping, photo geology, remote sensing, etc. theoretically and practically, and able to carry out related geology matters.
