Today, the world is being monitored day and night constantly by high resolution sophisticated earth resources Satellites. Availability of repetitive and high-resolution remote sensing (RS) data has increased the scope of identifying, monitoring and evaluating constant change of earth surface due to manmade and anthropogenic activities. In spite of having gained international recognition at a very early stage, these technologies are now gradually gaining its momentum in the Indian subcontinent as well. Given the wider applications of the Remote Sensing and GIS and the scarcity of human resource with the knowledge of this technology, JIS University has taken an initiative in 2019 to offer MSc in Remote Sensing & GIS course to the students to enhanced the employability. The diverse qualifications of the faculty members ensure expertise in all facet of Remote Sensing & GIS as well as in various interdisciplinary areas. Department ensures academic flexibility and good deal of faculty-student interaction. We have introduced Choice Based Credit System as per the UGC mandate. Project work and seminar presentation are introduced throughout the course curriculum to get an overview of the ongoing research and recent development in the subject. Faculties strong collaboration with national and international reputed organizations in Europe and Canada will help students for their higher education and research.
