The School of Earth Sciences was set up at Solapur University during the year 2008 to initiate inter disciplinary teaching and research programs. The hallmark of the school lies in using synergy between Applied Geology, Environmental Science and Geoinformatics to bridge the digital divide and promote knowledge driven and job-led economic development of the country. The post-graduate courses in Applied Geology, Environmental Science and Geoinformatics are CBCS with core components, subject optional and open optional courses meant for individual interest. Thus the school thrives to make capacity building in human resources in the field of earth sciences. The 11 faculty members with average age 35 are dedicated with proven national credibility in getting consultancy and R&D projects. The main thrust areas of research of the school are mineral exploration, watershed development and management, remote sensing & GIS, biodiversity, bioremediation, EIA etc.
About the Society
The Indian Society of Applied Geochemists (1SAG) was established in 1993 (Regd. No. 3614) at Hyderabad. Hyderabad is the considered the capital city of Earth Sciences, being the home of several geoscientific institutions and organizations and is a hub for geological activities. ISAG aims at promoting the cause of advance research in all branches of geochemistry for the benefit of society.
