Purpose and description of the content of education:
Celem modułu Mineralogia z podstawami krystalografii jest krótkie wprowadzenie podstaw krystalografii – nauki o kryształach będącej bazą dla studiowania mineralogii, petrografii, geochemii, nauki o złożach. Studenci poznają uniwersalne pojęcia substancji krystalicznej i symetrii oraz rozpoznają symetrię kryształów zarówno zewnętrzną, jak i wewnętrzną. Ponadto poznają prawa krystalografii geometrycznej i znajdą dla nich zastosowanie w mineralogii. Celem kursu jest nauczenie studentów praktycznych nawyków pracy z kryształami, opanowanie techniki prawidłowego opisania ich formy zewnętrznej oraz budowy wewnętrznej niezbędnej dla prawidłowej interpretacji wyników samodzielnej pracy naukowej i rozumienia literatury specjalistycznej.
