B.Sc. Geology Hons. program provides specialization in Groundwater exploration and management.

Groundwater exploration involves investigation of underground rocks to understand the hydrologic cycle, the groundwater quality, and identify the nature, number and type of aquifers. Most of the liquid freshwater resources are stored underground as groundwater (99%). Its regional distribution varies and depends mainly on climatic conditions as well as the geology of the subsurface. In contrast to petroleum and minerals, a great amount of the groundwater is recharged in the hydrologic cycle by infiltrating precipitation.

A thorough knowledge on groundwater resources leads to its sustainable utilization, where the regional distribution of water resources, hydraulic characteristics of the aquifer and the regional and temporal variations of the water quality are important factors. The recharge, the natural runoff and groundwater abstraction rates are indispensable information for sustainable groundwater management. The data required for a resource assessment is obtained by hydrogeological exploration, observations and measurements at boreholes and wells, geophysical investigations, airborne geophysical surveys, satellite imagery, and meteorological observations. Methods such as geoelectrics, airborne electromagnetics, and transient electromagnetics are also applied for groundwater exploration.

This course covers framework for integrated planning of businesses and supply chain strategy. The focus is on strategic alternatives for logistics and supply chain like alignment, agility, and adaptability. Further, strategic alternatives like efficient and responsive supply chains, speculative and postponement strategy are studied in detail. Also, customer specific performance metrics of supply chains like fill rate and on time delivery are studied.

Regulatory Affairs is a domain with a broad overview and the responsibility for collecting all kinds of data from the development processes and sending it to regulatory authorities. The courses will provide broad perspectives and integrated knowledge to the students from Innovation →Discovery → Approval→ Commercialization which implies regulatory affairs are essential to bring the product to the market globally. This course specialization provides a comprehensive education in the important aspects of Regulatory and Quality compliance in pharmaceutical industry. Students gets updated with the current regulatory and compliance issues and explore careers in these exciting times. Nowadays regulations and ever changing laws are driving demand for pharmaceutical regulatory affair professionals who can help companies successfully bring medical products to the market.

In addition this program also offers Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (AIML) applications in Clinical Research to upgrade Medical and Health Science. Machine Learning Techniques like pre-trained deep learning models and convolutional neural networks (CNN) provides excellent opportunities for drug-development processes and makes clinical trial more intelligent.

Mechanical engineering is the study, design, development, construction, and testing of mechanical and thermal sensors and devices, including tools, engines, and machines. Mechanical engineering careers center on creating technologies to meet a wide range of human needs. Mechanical engineering has its roots in the industrial revolution with the advent of the steam engine, automated manufacturing, and the demands of railroad transportation requiring increasingly innovative and sophisticated engineering solutions. Mechanical engineers are also pioneers in the air travel industry. Mechanical engineers design everything from new batteries, athletic equipment to medical devices and from personal computers, air conditioners, automobile engines to electric power plants. These engineers also design machines that produce these innovations.
