Dr. Constantin Athanassas is a geologist (University of Athens) with masters’ (University of Wales, NTUA), doctorate (University of Athens, NCSR «Demokritos») and postdoctoral degrees (Aix-Marseille University, CNRS, CEGERE, NTUA) in tectonics, geochronology, geoinformatics and physics. He teaches General Geology. His research interests lie with the exploration of tectonic processes (tectonophysics) and geological processes in general by geochronological methods, mathematical methods and remote sensing.
