Detailed study of the geographical and geological forms and processes, the man and environment interactions, and the social and economic patterns as well the urban geography. Their knowledge of cartography, remote sensing, GIS are all brought to bear in interpreting their environment.

Eight to ten days intensive field studies designed to illustrate the application of theories, concepts and techniques of geographical analysis. Examples of field study activities include rural land use studies, urban studies, vegetation and soil studies, landform studies and market surveys. It is expected that the students should travel outside the State where the University is located so they can be exposed to different geographic features.
