Kritikakis Georgios

Kritikakis Georgios is a Lecturer at the School of Mineral Resources Engineering, Technical University of Crete, affiliated with the Department of Mineral Resources Engineering and the Laboratory of Applied Geophysics. He has conducted tutorials and laboratory exercises in courses such as Seismic Methods, Applied Geophysics, and Field Exercises IV for over 13 years, while also developing MATLAB-based algorithms for seismic wave analysis and propagation simulation.

His educational background includes a PhD and a Master's in Geotechnology & Environment from the Department of Mineral Resources Engineering, with a focus on surface Rayleigh waves for subsoil property estimation and seismic wave velocity analysis. His research interests span geophysics, seismic methods, and their applications to environmental and geotechnical problems, as well as petroleum engineering through his involvement in the postgraduate course Seismic Imaging & Well Logging.

He has participated in over 10 research programs and 25 projects, contributed to 13 peer-reviewed publications and 32 conference presentations, and guided at least 30 thesis projects since 2004. He is a member of the European Association of Geoscientists and Engineers (EAGE) and has served on organizing committees for major geoscience conferences.

As part of his professional role, he supports academic systems including website hosting via TYPO3 and remote access tools, and contributes to administrative systems, telephony, and personnel leave management at the university.
