Departmental Activities
FIELD SURVEY & EXCURSION

Attainment of geographical knowledge is not restricted to the four-walls of the class room. Annual field surveys and excursions are conducted by the Department in different parts of the District, State as well as the country. Reports based on field surveys are prepared by the students under the supervision of the departmental teachers. The reports are later submitted and evaluated by external examiners appointed by the University for the partial fulfillment of the course curriculum.
