Course Curriculum Overview
I chose this course purely due to my curiosity to learn more about our planet Earth and the course does justice to my curiosity. From this course we can learn how natural calamities work, how Earth came into being, its processes everything in detail. We can also learn how life came about if we go to the research field and make a breakthrough using the knowledge we receive.

Students can work under professors here for internships which is a pretty good opportunity to expand their career. The Professors are really helpful and the projects are pretty insightful. Stipends are upto 5000 rs per month and the projects are related to what research the faculties are doing.

This college is said to have the best Earth Science Department in India and true to the reviews the experience is amazing. The Professors are well versed in what they teach and are passionate about it.
Faculty
The faculty members are really knowledgeable and it is insightful to hear their lectures. Their research areas are pretty interesting and they are willing to provide mentorship to those who are interested. The course structure is quite rigorous right now due to NEP but is very useful as we learn skill based courses that help us in the future. They conduct 2 internals for each course from which 40 marks are taken out of 100 along with marks for the assignments given. The semester examination is of 60 marks.
