Welcome to the Department of Geology
We are committed to advancing the scientific understanding of Earth's dynamic systems, the sustainable utilization of natural resources and the mitigation of contemporary environmental challenges. Through exemplary teaching, rigorous research and purposeful community engagement, the Department strives to foster an academic culture grounded in intellectual curiosity, analytical rigor and hands-on scientific inquiry.
Our mission is to nurture a generation of geoscientists equipped with the knowledge, skills, and ethical foundations necessary to contribute meaningfully to national development and to the broader global scientific community. We endeavor to prepare our students not only to excel in their professional pursuits but also to play a vital role in shaping a more sustainable and resilient future for society.
We extend a cordial invitation to prospective students, researchers and collaborative partners to join us in exploring the complexities of the Earth system and in advancing geoscience for the benefit of humanity.
