• Conducted Multichannel Analysis of Surface Waves (MASW) surveys to determine near‑surface shear‑wave velocities for geotechnical site evaluation. • Operated a 24‑channel PASI GEA‑24 seismograph with 4.5 Hz geophones and managed seismic data acquisition using a sledgehammer source. • Processed datasets with WinMASW, generating dispersion curves and performing 1D/2D inversions; interpreted Vs profiles to classify seismic site conditions.

• Prepared geochronology samples from the Swabian Alb region for cosmogenic radionuclide dating (Be‑10, Cl‑36), including density measurement, crushing and sieving. • Examined laser‑ablated mineral samples under an optical microscope to map grain locations, measure grain depth and diameter, and assess ablation quality for reliable age determinations. • Produced spatial datasets in QGIS: created and managed multiple layers to support fieldwork and analysis. • Ran landscape evolution models in Python to simul

• Oversaw daily operations and led a team of up to eight employees, ensuring high service standards. • Optimised processes and resolved operational issues while adhering to health-and-safety regulations. • Managed inventory control and financial reporting, maintaining accuracy and accountability.

• Coursework-based Master’s programme with strong focus on geomorphology, hydrology, geochemistry, geotechnical engineering, GIS, and Earth surface processes. • Completed core and elective modules covering field mapping, isotope geochemistry, hydrology, GIS and remote sensing, data analysis, exper

• Completed a coursework‑based programme covering a wide range of geoscience subjects, including mineralogy, structural geology and tectonics, geochemistry, geohydrology, remote sensing, palaeontology, sedimentology, geomorphology, fuel and ore geology, environmental geology, engineering geology an

• Coursework covered electrical theory, workshop calculation and science, engineering drawing, employability skills, and electrical safety practices. • Practical training included electrical wiring, installation, maintenance, fault diagnosis, and repair of electrical systems and equipment. • Field-

• Contributed to Youth Red Cross (YRC) activities, supporting health awareness initiatives, first-aid training, and volunteer-led outreach programs. • Developed teamwork, leadership, and organizational skills through participation in university-level social and volunteer activities. • Actively part
