    About the program

    As a comprehensive academic discipline, geography encompasses a range of sub-disciplinary fields and is divided into two main branches of human and physical geography. Sub-disciplines of human geography range from social, cultural, political, economic geography to urban, historical, and transport geography among others, while physical geography broadly consists of geomorphology, biogeography, climatology, pedology, and hydrology. The department aims to produce competent experts who can address complex social and environmental problems.
