About the Programme

The 2-year master degree course – M. Sc. Geoinformatics is an interdisciplinary course with an aim to meet the increasing demand for qualified manpower in this rapidly developing field encompassing both pure and applied sciences. Application of Remote Sensing techniques using Geographic Information System (GIS) and Global Positioning System (GPS) with advance surveying has its place in various activities such as resources monitoring and evaluation, environmental monitoring and land use/land cover mapping etc. RS data products are increasingly being used for designing of plan at all the levels of nation building. The department has a separate vision for this course in becoming a Centre of excellence in Geomatics education and research thus to match the needs of ever increasing requirement of trained manpower in these fields and to cater to the need of the human society. It is our mission to impart quality education to students supported by large-scale hands- on-activity that could make them capable of handling challenges of modern technologies and also to maintain super specialized research facilities to go hand in hand with the world's leading universities and research institutions.
