सवाल
Which syllabus is followed?
The NEP 2020 common minimum syllabus of UP state universities. Where your university's syllabus differs, the centre follows your own university syllabus.
Is software taught?
Basic demonstrations in free software (QGIS, Google Earth, ISRO Bhuvan) are given; detailed hands-on work is done in the Practical-VI paper.
Does it help in getting a job?
RS and GIS skills are useful for mapping, survey, planning and environmental jobs and for higher studies.
