Welcome to the Geology Department, nestled in the heart of the majestic northwestern Himalayas—a global hotspot for geological research. Our unique location not only offers us unparalleled access to some of the planet’s most fascinating geodiversity but also serves as a constant reminder of the ever-evolving landscape that we study.

Vision: Our vision is to become a leading center for geological sciences, where the mysteries of the Earth's past, present, and future are unraveled. We aim to inspire a new generation of geoscientists who are dedicated to understanding our planet's complex systems and processes. Through innovative research, cutting-edge technology, and a deep commitment to sustainability, we strive to contribute significantly to global knowledge and solutions for some of the most pressing environmental challenges.

Mission: Our mission is to offer an immersive and rigorous educational experience for our undergraduate students. We are committed to teaching the fundamental principles of geology, as well as advanced theories and practices that address the dynamic nature of the Earth. By fostering a deep understanding of geodiversity and its importance, we prepare our students not just to become adept geoscientists, but also to be responsible stewards of Earth's resources.

Located in an area of outstanding natural beauty and geological significance, our department provides an ideal setting for hands-on learning, research, and exploration. Our courses are designed to harness the full potential of our surroundings, enabling students to engage directly with the terrain and phenomena they study. From field trips and laboratory work to seminars with leading experts, our comprehensive program ensures that graduates are well-equipped for their future careers, whether in academia, industry, or policy-making
