Department's History
Department of Geophysics was established
at Eötvös University in 1951 by Prof. László Egyed. His heritage
is reflected by the notion that both in education and research,
studies of the physical and geological processes of the Earth
and applied geophysics focusing on mineral resources and exploration
are intervowen.
Since the 60s the research of the solid Earth
has been complemented by studies of the outer space. In the
last two decades, our Space Research Group has reached remarkable
results in development and application of satellite data systems
and remote sensing.
Between 1951 and 2007, more than 350 students
graduated in geophysics. Most of them have been employed in
the Hungarian job market. Others have international carrier
mostly at oil companies evidencing the high-quality of the
educational system.
A brief summary of the history
of Department of Geophysics was given by Prof. Frank Horváth
