Because of the impact worldwide of the coronavirus (COVID-19), the 2020 International Summer Programmes have been replaced by the Virtual Summer Festival of Learning

This course is part of the Interdisciplinary Summer Programme Term II 2020.

We begin by studying volcanoes, earthquakes and mountains and how geological evidence reveals the dynamic history of our planet. We then investigate fossils and the four-billion-year evolution of life, from its earliest stages via extinct animals such as dinosaurs and mammoths to the present biosphere. Samples from a fine collection of rocks, minerals and fossils support the teaching.
