Department of Geography
About Department
The Department of Geography is an academic institution dedicated to the study and exploration of the Earth’s landscapes, environments, and their interactions with human societies. This department plays a crucial role in advancing our understanding of various geographic phenomena, such as natural landscapes, climate patterns, human settlements, cultural practices, and economic activities.
In a Department of Geography, students and researchers engage in a multidisciplinary field that encompasses aspects of physical geography and human geography. Physical geography focuses on natural processes, including landforms, ecosystems, weather, and climate patterns. Human geography, on the other hand, examines the relationships between people and their environments, encompassing topics like urban planning, cultural landscapes, migration patterns, and socio-economic disparities.
