Presently, the School of Earth Sciences is considered as one of the top ranked campus Schools by many assessing agencies including NAAC and UGC. The School has many firsts to its credit within the University including introduction of ‘Credit System’ and ‘CBCS’ pattern, offering Credit Exchange, initiation of individual Research Project, obtaining ‘FIST’ from the DST, ‘SAP’ from the UGC, and ‘Innovative Program’ from UGC, hosting ‘Fulbright Fellows’ from USIEF, equipping classrooms with OHP & LCD, providing Laptop computers to all the faculty members, having ‘Adjunct Faculty’ and initiating three fold MoUs with Universities, Research Institutes and Industries among others.

Having achieved impressive progress in the first twenty five years of establishment, we have definite goals for the School’s future. At present the School of Earth Sciences has needed infrastructure and software for the Masters programs and is on an ambitious path to procure sophisticated instruments to carry out advanced research. The School has been making efforts that every student from the School would undergo training in reputed Universities and Institutions. The School has been striving hard to provide Fellowship to the needy students based on merit. It is the endeavour of the School that the students should publish at least one research paper from their Post-Graduate Dissertation work.

The School has initiated Campus recruitment on a modest scale and more than 15 students were recruited in this year. We would like to see that all our students get recruited through the on-campus recruitment in near future.

The School of Earth Sciences is one of the progressive and vibrant academic departments in India in the field of Earth Sciences. We, all the stakeholders, have a dream... to see the School of Earth Sciences among the top 10 Earth Science Departments of our Country in the coming 5 years. We believe that we are moving in that direction.
