Department of Geology

The Post Graduate Department of Geology, situated in the R.B.D. Laxminarayan Campus, Law
 College Premises, Rashtrasant Tukadoji Maharaj Nagpur University, Nagpur, was established in the year 1946. The magnificent building of the Department has the built up area of 3447.11 Sq. M. Since its inception in 1946, the Department is constantly striving at strengthening the geological input of the country by providing its knowledge bank through its 1500 post graduates and 60 doctoral students in their various capacities.
           
The Department offers two Post Graduate courses in M. Sc. Pure Geology (2 years) and M. Sc. (Tech.) Applied Geology (3 years). The Department is providing research guidance leading to doctoral degree in various earth science branches ranging from its basic branches of Petrology, Mineralogy to new fields of Environmental Geology, Remote Sensing, Sedimentology, Hydrochemistry, Micropaleontology etc.
           

The Department is constantly interacting with the user through R& D project sponsored by UGC,
 DST, CSIR, World Bank, UNICEF, Science and Technology cell of the Govt. of Maharashtra maintaining its utility to the society through service. This is further illustrated through its close knit ties with various Central and State Governments agencies viz. Geological Survey of India (G.S.I.), Indian Bureau of Mines (I.B.M.), Western Coal Fields Limited (W.C.L.), Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (O.N.G.C.), Manganese Ore India Limited (MOIL), National Geophysical Research Institute (NGRI), Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO), UNESCO, Central Ground Water Board (CGWB), Directorate of Geology & Mining (DGM), Ground Water Survey and Development Agency (GSDA) etc.
