OUR ENVIRONMENT
Inspite of the deteriorating status of the environment, study of environment has so far not received adequate attention in our academic programmes. This programme aims at giving students a clear understanding of environmental concerns and to follow sustainable development practices. This will definitely help students develop an interdisciplinary global understanding of ecological and environmental problems.
