Since its establishment, the Department of Geology has received various donations and sponsorships from individuals and organizations. These sponsorships are either financial (amount of money) or material (equipment, sample collections, works of art).

Such sponsorships have strengthen the educational and research efforts of the Department and trigger its further development, especially during the economic austerity we are going through.
