Novosibirsk State University Geophysical Society
Novosibirsk State University Geophysical Society was founded in 2005 in Akademgorodok, Russia. The Society has about 80 members, most of them are students of Geology and Geophysics Department of Novosibirsk State University.
In January 2018 Novosibirsk State Technical University SEG Student Chapter has been approved and both organizations were merged to form Novosibirsk SEG United Student Chapter.
