In the Master degree course, students are introduced to a range of geographical topics along with Remote Sensing and GIS in the first two semesters that are followed up in more details in the final year. Students must complete 92 credits to earn a master degree in Geography. With full-time enrollment, students can become a post-graduate in two years.

Specialization

Geography offers two specializations – Geomorphology and Social Geography. Under Geomorphology geographers study landscapes, bodies of water, and geomorphic processes, as well as human impact on geographic elements. Social Geography “…stressed both the humanistic nature of the geographical world… and the classificatory nature of… human geographical work…”

Fieldwork opportunities

In teaching Geography, we emphasize the importance of fieldwork since we believe there is no substitute for teaching subjects first hand. Thus in 2nd-semester students takes part in a week-long field course within the country. In the final semester, students are to do independent research in the field and to submit a dissertation for evaluation.
