Mohamed Sy Savane is a Bachelor of science in Geology and a Master of science in Applied Geophysics. 

He conducted an M.Sc. research project on the characterization of  subsurface Light Non-aqueous Phase Liquid (LNAPL) migration within 

a grey gneiss  environment in Ile-Ife, Nigeria. This was done to establish the effectiveness of integrated  electrical resistivity and Ground 

Penetrating Radar (GPR) in the subsurface characterization of  soil and groundwater contaminants (LNAPL) migration. The GPR radars and

 2D resistivity images showed different facies of the subsoil. GPR pre and post injection radargrams showed lateral spreading of LNAPL 

away from the injection points, while the vertical movement of the contaminant was very small and insignificant. The project was carried 

out by a team and along with several other projects, Mohamed Sy Savane has achieved their collective goals

Mohamed Sy Savane always enjoy learning new things, meeting new people, seeing new places and trying new foods to eat. He says... 

"I look forward to my PhD journey in amazing China. I am keenly interested in ways I can quickly and effectively detect and monitor 

contaminants in the environment. I am happy to expand my knowledge under the guidance, support and supervision of my Professor 

Zheng Zhang. I look forward to working with my new team. I am sure I'll have a great experience and will come out a better Geoscientist
