TSU graduate awarded PhD for study of environmental crisis
Sergey Lazarev, holder of a bachelor's degree from the Faculty of Geology and Geography and a master's degree from the TSU and University of Lille-1 (France) double-degree program, has completed his postgraduate studies at the University of Utrecht (Netherlands). In July, he defended his dissertation at Utrecht on the environmental crisis of the Late Miocene and Middle Pleistocene in Western Eurasia and received his PhD. Analyzing changes in ecosystems remains relevant because of the global decrease in biodiversity and the dominance of invasive species due to climate change and other human activities.
In the double-degree master's program between TSU and the University of Lille-1, Sergey Lazarev studied for the first year in the master's program at TSU (Geology, specialization Stratigraphy), and for the second year he studied in France.
