The Department of Geology at Soban Singh Jeena University (SSJU) focuses on the scientific study of the Earth, its materials, structure, history and dynamic processes. The department provides students with a strong foundation in earth sciences and develops an understanding of geological processes that shape the planet.
The department encourages students to explore minerals, rocks, fossils, geological structures, geomorphology, plate tectonics and the evolution of the Earth. Practical laboratory work, geological mapping, field visits, specimen studies and research activities help students connect theoretical knowledge with real geological environments.
The Department of Geology promotes field-based and research-oriented learning in areas such as mineralogy, petrology, structural geology, palaeontology, stratigraphy, sedimentology, economic geology, hydrogeology and environmental geology. Students are encouraged to develop scientific observation, analytical and field investigation skills for understanding Earth resources and geological processes.
The undergraduate programme in Geology provides foundational knowledge of Earth sciences, minerals, rocks, fossils, geological structures, geomorphology and Earth's history. The programme combines classroom learning with laboratory practicals, geological mapping and field-based studies.
