Programme Outcomes
On completion of the course the learner will be able
- Gain a better understanding of the Plants, Moons and other objects of our solar system in addition to their distribution and dynamical relationship.
- Understand elastic and viscous strain in role behaviour, the effects of temperature, pressure and strain rate on rock strength and the mechanism of rock deformation.
- Recognize and quantify the physical and optical properties of minerals. Student would understand the Indian Stratigraphy and its age related problems.
- Demonstrate the difference between minerals and ore minerals. Explain the formation of placers and other minerals. Explain the origin of igneous rocks and structures.
- Students understand the field basic equipment handling and requirements. Understand the compass its uses rock and mineral direction. Understand the student using base map latitude and longitude direction. Gains a better understand the field writing materials, field sketches and drawings.
Programme Specific Outcomes
