Core Values
BSc Geology is a 3 year under graduation course, desirable for those who want to study about the structure, composition and components of Earth.
- The programme educates about various rocks, minerals, fossils, crystals etc which are exposed above and below the earth’s surface.
- This student are taught with crystallography, mineralogy, palaeontology, petrology, economic geology, hydrogeology, stratigraphy, structural geology etc.
- The course also includes mandatory fieldwork and practicals of different theory subjects.
- Moreover, this course provides a great knowledge of nature and different natural phenomena like earthquakes, volcanoes, tsunamis and many others, how they occur, their after-effects etc.
- After completion of this course, students can either pursue higher studies or can work in different departments in both the private and government sector.
B.Sc. Environmental Science & Water Resources is a 3 year undergraduate Environmental course.
- Environmental Science covers the study of subjects like understanding of earth processes, evaluating alternative energy systems, pollution control and mitigation, natural resource management, effects of global climate change, etc.
- This curriculum will expose students to various fields in environmental chemistry and develop interest in related disciplines.
- The course is career oriented in nature and opens many scopes after it.
B.Sc. Industrial Safety is a 3 year under graduation course, comes handy while the infrastructure planning and design is being planned.
- Industrial safety course is designed in such a way to impart knowledge about maximum safety of workers, facility and environment for better achievement.
- This course covers mainly safety in construction, transport, mines, onshore and offshore drilling, fire and electrical circumstances where safety is predominant.
- The student are exposed to various safety protocols and practices which are used to train the workers. Following these practices will ensure their safety at work place. Principles of fire safety, electrical safety and disaster management come versatile when something goes wrong.
- Industry safety professionals have diverse job opportunities available in front of them. They have access to both Government and Private sector jobs. As long as the industries exist, the demand for safety professionals will remain intact.
