Departmental Activities

Academic Year: 2024-2025

The department of Geography of Sivanath Sastri College was established in the year 1961. It offers Honours and Multidisciplinary courses that seek to inculcate a holistic understanding of the complex relationships between the physical and cultural landscapes, foregrounding the linkages between man and environment in modern contexts. Keeping in view the current technological advancements, students are provided with hands-on guidance for conducting GIS and remote sensing and different geographical instruments. This guidance prepares the students for a number of academic and professional opportunities. Furthermore, field excursions provide real-time experience to students to enable them to analyze practical applications related to their curriculum. With the introduction of 4-year Honours B.A./B.Sc. Course with Research in Geography, field excursions have become an integral part of the holistic learning process in the final Semester of their Course. On account of the efficient methodologies adopted by the Department for conducting the Courses, students have consistently performed well in their university examinations and have gone on to join various national and international universities for their further studies and employment.
