The department was founded in order to explore the mineral potential of the Eastern Black Sea and conduct research on natural disasters that have occurred in the region. Besides core subjects such as mathematics, physics and chemistry, professional courses relating to Geophysics are offered to students. The subject areas of research include a wide range of fields: minerals, oil and gas exploration, geothermal energy, underground water exploration, soil and earthquake investigations.
The department offers master and PhD programmes as well.
