The major fields of research are: Renewable energy, Water Pollution, Soil Pollution, Heavy Metal Pollution, Air quality monitoring, and analysis, Atmospheric organics including carbonaceous fractions, volatile organic compounds, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon, Air quality, and health, etc.
The Environmental Science is a multi-disciplinary subject because it comprises various branches of science like chemistry, physics, medical science, life science, agriculture, public health, sanitary engineering, etc. It is the science of physical phenomena in the environment. It studies of the sources, reactions, transport, effect and fate of chemical and biological species in the air, water, and soil, and their effect on human activities.
We need to study the environment and the sciences applied into it to find solutions to different environmental issues so that children of tomorrow will still enjoy the healthy and a productive environment we still have now. Environmental science provides the educational specialties related to a number of subjects and issues related to environment i.e.
Ozone layer Depletion,
Noise Pollution,
Food Cycle,
Acid Rain,
Air Pollution,
Fossil fuels,
Climate change etc.
School of Studies in Environmental Science provides an integrated, quantitative, and interdisciplinary approach to the study of environmental systems.
