The Organizing Committee of the 1st International Symposium of the Faculty of Mines on Earth Sciences and Engineering invites you to participate in the symposium during 16 - 18 May 2002 to be held at the ITU-Suleyman Demirel Cultural Center - Maslak Campus, Istanbul - TURKEY.

Istanbul Technical University (ITU) has recently adopted a new strategy to compete favourably with the leading universities of the world. Along this direction the Faculty of Mines has launched a number of international multidisciplinary research activities. This international Earth Sciences Symposium is an expression of this scope. Our specific goals are to bring together professionals (leading engineers, manager, and scientists) who are interested in diversified fields of earth sciences and engineering; geology, geophysics, mining engineering and petroleum and natural gas engineering, and to provide an environment where such professionals can discuss and exchange new developments in their associated fields.
