As part of the well-established and effective cooperation between Lydian Armenia and the Faculty of Geography and Geology, a Master Class was delivered by Robert Sparrow.
Robert Sparrow is the Senior Vice President for Exploration at United, a shareholder of Lydian Armenia. He has more than 20 years of experience in geological exploration, has worked in various jurisdictions, and has played an active role in the implementation of several successful exploration projects.
During the lecture, the speaker shared his professional journey with the faculty’s academic staff and students, addressing the practical aspects of a geologist’s work and professional skills, as well as the scientific foundations of the profession and current trends in the field.
The lecture was attended in full by Lydian Armenia’s exploration team. Notably, the majority of the team’s young members are current students or graduates of the faculty who have successfully integrated into our team․ At the conclusion of the lecture, they had the opportunity to present to their professors and friends a typical working day at Amulsar, sharing the practical knowledge and experience they had gained through their work there.
The lecture, which ran for an entire day, was held in a fully packed auditorium throughout. This high level of interest from both students and faculty members encourages Lydian Armenia to organize similar events more frequently, particularly in light of the ongoing cooperation with the Faculty, for which we would like to thank the Faculty and Dean Sarkis Qelyan.
We believe these collaborations help prepare highly qualified specialists who, after completing their studies, are competitive and sought-after professionals both in Armenia and internationally.
