Message from Head
Department of Geology at the University of Delhi is one of the premier learning centres for geoscience in India. It was established in 1966 by Prof. A.G. Jhingran (former DG GSI) with the aim of providing useful education, conducting high-quality original research, and providing leadership in various disciplines of geosciences. A regular updating of curriculum syllabus and innovative methods of teaching our department have provided a strong reputation and influence in geoscience, both at national and international levels. Our dedicated faculty members undertake major scientific research projects that involve basic and advanced research and societal needs. Our department gives great importance to talent and encourages students and research scholars to make fundamental, strategic, original, and significant contributions to geoscience and society. I am grateful to those who care and support our endeavour. I am looking forward to our faculty and students scaling new heights in geoscience frontiers.
