Geography

Introduction

We are dedicated to the exploration, implementation, and dissemination of information about the human and physical environment, aiming to prepare and engage students in critical thinking and meaningful problem-solving. The history of the department can be traced back to 1931-32 when Geography was first introduced as a minor subject. The office was formally established in 1936. Geography is a broad discipline that bridges the gap between arts, social sciences, and natural sciences. It provides education that addresses pressing concerns such as environmental change, regional and global inequality, and global economic and cultural transformation. Students acquire a unified understanding of the constantly evolving world and how culture both influences and is influenced by it. In September 2021, the Department of Geography was relocated to GC University Lahore, New Campus situated at Kala Shah Kaku (KSK). The department boasts five classrooms, a departmental Library, GIS Lab, Hydro-Geomorphology Lab and Geomatics Lab.
