The School of Earth and Environmental Sciences is a scientific community that studies the Earth and its neighbors in space. The School aims to provide a diverse, inclusive environment which fosters open-minded critical thinking and debate, and is committed to creating a scientifically literate and informed society. The School welcomes everyone who shares these aspirations. SEES produces new knowledge about earth and environmental processes and human-environment interactions at all geographic and temporal scales, provides the scientific basis for environmental and climate policy, trains the next generation of earth and environmental scientists, and disseminates knowledge and solutions for the benefit of students and society. The combination of field, instrumental, computational, and modeling approaches in the earth and environmental sciences within one unit is a major strength. SEES facilitates interdisciplinary research, teaching, and outreach/extension activities across the various departments and laboratories.
The School of Earth and Environmental Sciences has established in 2018. In shorts span, the School has established excellent facilities to get quality education in the field of environment and earth sciences particularly in Distance Learning. School is having four teaching departments viz. Department of Geology, Department of Forestry and Environmental Science, Department of Geography and natural Resource Management and Department of Remote sensing and GIS
SEES offers four Post Graduate courses in Environmental Science, Geology, Geography and Geoinformatics. In addition to this, school has started Certificate course in disaster management and geoinformatics under career oriented certificate courses. Eco-friendly sustainable approach in the process of development is a unique culture developed at the School.
The SEES is working as interdisciplinary center to learn and disseminate the knowledge in various aspects of environment by offering M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees to students. The School intends to impart special laboratory training to students who can easily handle the emerging environmental problems of various kinds faced by the industries and the society on both technological and environmental fronts. There is one Professor, one Assistant Professor and five Assistant Professor (AC) in the School.
