Programme Outcomes

M.Sc. Programme

  • To understand the principles, applications, trends, and pertinent issues of geographical information systems and sciences, including Remote Sensing (RS),   Photogrammetry, Cartography and Global Positioning Systems (GPS). To know about the characteristics of different satellites and sensors and the latest developments in space mission programs.
  • To develop technical skills and competence in satellite data acquisition, extraction, management and analysis; spatial and statistical modelling; mapping and visualization.
  • Practical courses assist students to develop a higher level of professional skills to tackle multidisciplinary and complex problems related to “Remote Sensing and GIS”. To integrate Remote Sensing knowledge with GIS and to work with GIS software in various application fields. Apply principles of Remote Sensing and GIS to collect data, maps and retrieve spatial information. Monitoring and management of natural and manmade resources using geospatial models and methods.
  • Each student in the fourth semester is assigned a dissertation that allows them to develop professional and intellectual integrity. They learn practically to implement the knowledge of Remote Sensing & GIS in various fields such as forestry, agriculture, water resources, snow/glaciers, geology, geomorphology, environmental science, pollution monitoring, water quality monitoring, urban sprawl, urban planning, disaster management and planning.
  • Development of communication skills, ethics of research and scholarship, consideration of the impact of research outcomes on professional practices and an understanding of responsibility to contribute to the community for sustainable development of society.

Ph.D. Programme

  • The department offers PhD courses to engage students in critical thinking and pursue research/ investigations and development to solve real-world problems using Remote Sensing & GIS techniques. Develop geospatial models and tools to address the social and engineering problems. A few Ph.D. research scholars are also doing their research work in collaboration with the Indian Space Research Organization, to expand the breadth of research, learn new skills and expand the network. Various research papers have been published in highly reputed journals, and more are expected in the future. To develop the aptitude and attitude towards knowledge creation and knowledge dissemination for the benefit of the common society.
