Adjusted programme for bachelors in geology Science

This programme is defined in relation with the BAC in geological sciences organised by the University of Liège's Faculty of Sciences.
It is likely to be greatly modified for students with a BAC in geological sciences from other institutions, in terms of the knowledge gained, and courses not taken, and the personal project, whilst remaining within the limits of 75+60 credits.
