What does the programme offer? During the first three semesters, students will be taught a rich mix of fundamental courses in Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, and Biology, as well as a basic foundation in the principles of Engineering. In addition, students will be exposed to several courses in humanities that will provide them with a better appreciation of science and its societal implications, as well as sharpen their skills in communicating science both to experts in their fields and to society at large. After successful completion of the first three semesters, students majoring in Earth & Environmental Science will be required to take a fixed number of core-courses in this Major. Students can then acquire additional expertise in special areas of their choice by crediting elective courses from among a wide range of special topics courses; additional elective courses in any of the other science/engineering disciplines could lead to a minor specialization, provided the minimum credit requirements for doing so are met. Students majoring in Earth & Environmental Science will be taught salient topics in Environmental Chemistry, Earth Science, Atmospheric Science and Environmental Engineering. The Laboratory Courses are thoughtfully designed to help understand various concepts taught in the Bachelor of Science (Research) Programme, provide hands on experience with state of the art equipment and teach essential experimental techniques in earth & environmental management. The Earth & Environmental Science students will have opportunities to undertake research/practice oriented projects in the final semesters in an Earth & Environmental Science area of their choice.
