Class

room

Requirement:.

As

our student strength

will

double

in

the next academic session two parallel classes (.1" and 2nd year)

will

be running simultaneously

for

M.A.,l14.Sc. Geography and

M.Sc. Earth and

Geological Sciences.

In addition to that

pre-ptr.O. _courses

will also

be running in the coming semester. Cunently we are managing all the lab and theory classes for _both the programme

with

one class room and one lab. Hence we need to have another

two

class _room in addition to present one.

2. Lab

Space

Requirement:

We also need additional

lab

space (300 sq. feet)

for running

_lab

classes and

for

the research

work.

For running geochemistry

lab

and researcn (f _SO

sq. feei

we need a separate space where we can install one or

two

fume hood for teaching and research work.

It

was decided that OIC

will

move a request letter

3 lncreasing'Field Trip Budget allotment to the Centre:

Field

work is

an

indivisible

part

of

!IA'

^and M.Sc. program run

by

our centre.

M.A.

/M.Sc. Geography students need

to go ior

the field survey as

well

as field

work

for

fulfillment

of their various

thloiy

and lab courses.

For

M.Sc.

Earth and Geological Sciences students

two field

works (2nd semester and 4th Semester) are two different

credit

courses and

part of their

syllabus. Hence

we

required

more allotment of

grant under this head.

In

the current budget head

it

is around Rs. 50,00d/-. We decided that centre

will

propose

for

Rs.

2

lacs under this head as next academic year total number

of

student

will

increase and two different batches

will

be present in the centre.

4. Lab Rule: It

was decided that Dr. L. T. S. Guite

will

prepare lab guide/rule for GIS

Remote Sensing lab _and

Dr- Milan

Kumar sharma

All will

contribute _to prepare this guide/ruIe.

5'

^Purchase

of DGPS:

As the price

of

DGPS

with

better configuration _make is higher than the

initially

proposed instrument, hence we decided to procure in

theiext

financial year and approval

will be taken fbr

^purchase.

Budget booked for the DGPS may be utilized fbr some

other procurement in the current financial year.

6

Unutilized budget may be processed for purchase of r.arious items required for the centre.

' Air condition and other electric fittings in the Lab:

The false

ceiling

and

partition of

the t'ab have been completed. In the summer

it w'ill

be

difficult

to

work

inside tf,e lab

without A/C

as the ventilation

is

blocked. We decided that request letter _{rnay be} moved

for

installation

of

5

NC

fittings

and fan installation is not completed so, engineering section may be

infomecl
