The Bachelor of Science (BS) in Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) integrates the study of remote sensing technology and GIS applications. Remote sensing involves gathering data about the Earth's surface from a distance using sensors on satellites, aircraft, or drones, while GIS focuses on storing, analyzing, and visualizing spatial data.

The students typically delve into the principles and techniques of remote sensing, including image interpretation, data acquisition, and processing. They also explore GIS fundamentals, such as spatial analysis, database management, and cartography. The curriculum encompasses topics like Remote Sensing Principles, Image Interpretation, GIS Fundamentals, Data Acquisition, Remote Sensing Data Processing, Spatial Analysis, Cartography and Visualization, GIS Database Management, Remote Sensing Applications, and Geospatial Technologies. Throughout the program, students engage with remote sensing and GIS software, such as ArcGIS, ERDAS Imagine, ENVI, or QGIS, gaining practical experience in applying these tools to real-world scenarios.

We develop skills sets like GIS Data Management, Cartography and Visualization, GIS Programming, advanced surveying, spatial analysis, field work and data collection, research skills, geo-spatial technology proficiency, team work and collaboration, Project Management and problem-solving,

The MS program in Geography delves into applied areas within the discipline, covering Applied Physical Geography, Applied Human Geography, and emerging fields like Geography of Transportation, Fluvial Morphology, Disaster Risk Management, Regional Planning, and Climate Change. Additionally, it incorporates essential techniques such as Remote Sensing, GIS, and others, emphasizing their practical applications across various domains.

Graduates of the MS/MPhil program in Geography are well-equipped for diverse career paths. They may pursue roles in academia as researchers or professors, working in research institutions, universities, or think tanks. Alternatively, they can explore opportunities as geographers, spatial analysts, GIS specialists, environmental consultants, urban planners, or within government agencies involved in resource management, regional planning, transportation, or environmental policy development.

Throughout the program, students develop a robust skill set, including advanced surveying, mapping, spatial analysis, fieldwork, and data collection.
