Educational practical training is organized in Dnepropetrovsk and on the hydrogeological test site at the sport complex "Miner" in the village Orlovschyna. Conducting this training includes the study of hydrogeological and geotechnical processes on the real sites, the study of water and physical properties of soil, geo-mechanical conditions of soils and rocks on built-up areas.

The hydrogeological test site located at the sport complex "Miner" has the network of extracting, pumping, and observation wells that are installed in the shallow and artesian aquifers. During the educational training test water injections in soil and pumping from wells are performed; physical and mechanical properties of soils are evaluated using field laboratories.
