Department of Geography and the Environment

Geology is a scholastic train that spotlights on the spatial dissemination of human and physical elements around the Earth and changes after some time of those wonders. Since geology connects the limit between the normal world and human social orders, geographers frequently team up with associates in related orders in the regular and sociologies. Geographers are taught to think in spatial and ordered terms and to break down scenes for signs of physical and social elements. 

Geographers likewise make maps to show spatial connections and utilize topographically based information sets to answer spatial inquiries and break down spatial information. The field is frequently subdivided into physical topography, human geology, human-environment communication and geographic data science (GISc). Our undergrad majors are required to take initial coursework in each of these subdisciplines, trailed by more propelled courses in each of the principle fields. 

The focal objective of the undergrad educational modules in geology is to deliver understudies with a strong establishment in geographic standards and points of view, and the expert abilities to place them into practice. 

All the more particularly, the project means to give understudies aptitudes and procedures that will permit them to apply what they realize in the classroom, research facility and field. 

Understudies are furnished with abilities in issue distinguishing proof and arrangement; preparing in geotechnical apparatuses, including geographic data frameworks, cartography, remote detecting, geographic measurements and spatial examination; and involvement in field and research center methods.
