Faculty of Environmental and Bio Sciences & Technology
Welcome to Department of Environmental Science & EngineeringEstablishment of the Department of Environmental Science and Engineering is in line with one of the objectives of the university enshrined in its preamble to facilitate and promote studies and research in the field of Environmental Studies and Non-Conventional sources. The department has innovative, dynamic and fiexible course curricula in which students have choice to select the courses of their interest and undertake research projects. We strive to fulfill our vision, "Pursuance for excellence to achieve sustainable development", our mission "To impart training for capacity building to tackle various environmental challenges in an eco-friendly manner", and our objectives "To offer professional and job oriented course curricula to strengthen R&D activities and to offer consultancy and extension activities to stake holders". The faculty members are engaged in research in the frontier areas of science and technology. There are a number of R & D projects supported by various government agencies being implemented in the department. The laboratories are equipped with "State-of-the-Art" facilities. Students are provided with enabling ambience that promotes culture, sports, societal contributions, art, self-governance and human values. After successful completion of phase-1, the department has again been inducted in the Technical Education Quality Improvernent Programme-II (TEQIP-II) of the World Bank and Special Assistance Programme-II (SAP-II) of the University Grants Commission (UGC), New Delhi. The department has received FIST Grant from DST for infrastructure development. .

OBJECTIVE : The fast emerging technologies of Remote Sensing (RS), Geographic Information System (GIS),Global Positioning System (GPS) and Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) have converged into a discipline with its own research base known as Geo-Informatics. The technology helps in acquiring information about the earth and its resources in spatial format and help in analyzing large datasets. To cater to the fast increasing demand for the trained manpower in the field of GeoInformatics, both for public and private sectors, the Department of Environmental Science & Engineering has started a two years M.Tech. course in Geo-Informatics in collaboration with Haryana Space Application Centre (HARSAC), Department of Science & Technology, Government of Haryana, Chandigarh. Under this programme, GJUS&T, Hisar makes admissions, conducts examinations and awards degrees. Top 5 (Five) students in each semester of M.Tech. (GeoInformatics) will be provided the HARSAC merit-cum-means Scholarships of Rs. 5000/- per month (Rupees Five Thousand only) subject to grant received from HARSAC. The Guidelines of above scholarship is available on University website.

OBJECTIVE : The two years M.Sc. course in Environmental Sciences is aimed at building a strong theoretical base in every aspect of environment, providing intensive practical training on modern instrumentation and analytical techniques and developing problem-solving and research skill in the students. The programme is designed in such a way that the students get in-depth knowledge of scientific, technical, economic, legal as well as social aspects of environment. Short term in-plant training and practical exposure equip them well to take up challenging jobs in the field as well as industry besides academic and research organizations. Regular seminars, workshops, extension lectures, quiz, industry visits, educational tours, competitions and awareness campaigns expand the horizon of knowledge and skill of the students. The students after completing the course have career options in industry, Pollution Control Boards, National and State Govt. Departments concerned with Forestry, Wild Life, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, Remote Sensing & GIS and Environmental auditing besides academics & research.
OBJECTIVE :Huge industrial installations, introduction of faster mode of transport and sprouting up of large crowded cities contribute various environmental problems and challenges. The growing concern about environmental degradation, shrinkage of natural resources and urgency to meet food needs of burgeoning population are compelling scientists to find out solutions. Keeping in view, the programme is focused to bring out the solutions of various environmental problems in effective, economical and sustainable manner. This course provides a platform to the students for future research and development activities in different aspects of environment.
