“Derby equipped me with a degree that emphasizes practical knowledge, integrating extensive field excursions and hands-on geoscientific skills directly applicable in the mining and exploration sectors. The degree's focus on real-world skills, rather than being narrowly centred on academic niche topics, has been invaluable to my career. ”

Together with 19 PhD students I have been looking at the geology of NW Wales during the #IAS summerschool in sedimentology. With the superb guidence of @makingripples.bsky.social, Dei Huws, @lokier.bsky.social, and Megan Baker it was a unforgettable week. Thanks everyone for the great experience!

A terrific first day on the #IAS International Summer School of Sedimentology.

Well done team!
@sedimentology.bsky.social

And so, it starts!

Yesterday, visited this terrific exhibition celebrating the pioneering work of William and Mary Buckland. Bonus - hosted by one of my favourite places on the planet - @morethanadodo.bsky.social

Join us for the last Seds Online Webinar of the 2024-25 season.

Tomorrow, Adam Tomasovych from the Slovak Academy of Sciences will be presenting "Tracing processes in the taphonomically-active zone and inferring condensation on the basis of skeletal preservation"

Join us at 4pm (UK time)

Final mapping day for our UG #EarthScientists. Now time to get those maps completed.

While out in the field looking at rocks with @derbyuniearth.bsky.social 1st year students, it’s always nice to look at other things too. Here I think we have (correct if wrong) Marsh thistle, Common Lousewort, Heath milkwort, Round-leaved sundew, Heath bedstraw, Tormentil & Common cotton-grass.

Four days of geology so far with the Derby Uni @derbyuniearth.bsky.social 1st year students. Siliciclastics, carbonates, contact metamorphism, folded turbidities followed by an into to their mapping area. Sunshine in the Lake District!

Day two of field mapping for our UG Earth Scientists…
