DIBRUGARH UNIVERSITY
(UGC recognized state university of Assam, established in 1965)

Admission notice for post MSc Two years’ M.Tech Programme in Exploration Geophysics in the Department of Applied geology, Dibrugarh University, Assam (India) for the academic session 2013-2015.

Total number of seats: 15
Tuition fee: Rs. 30,000/- per semester

Approximate net expenditure for the programme: Rs. 1, 50,000 (for four semesters)
Session starts from: 1st August, 2013.

Objectives:
The basic objective behind offering Exploration Geophysics as an M.Tech Programme is three fold.
First, to generate quality human resources in the ‘high skill’ segment of workers belonging to Exploration Geophysics and increasing thereby the practical importance of higher education in nation building. Secondly, introduction of more down-to-earth steps so that the academia-industry symbiosis becomes more meaningful as well as useful. Thirdly, to encourage young minds to pursue research works on the geophysical problems of different sedimentary basins and in particular the Assam Arakan Basin.

What can you expect from this programme?
1. Upgraded, industry oriented syllabus.
2. Faculties having industrial as well as long years of academic background.
3. Earth system science approach.
4. Continuous interactions with the resource persons from the premiere oil industries like the OIL and ONGC.
5. Regular field work.
6. Serious project work.
7. Better job prospect.
8. Purposeful research orientation.

Programme structure:
In conformity with the stated objectives, the first semester of the programme will be devoted to introduce the philosophy of scientific exploration in general and exploration geophysics in particular. Additionally, Earth System Science approach with a solid foundation of Structural Geology and Sedimentology will be there. The second semester will be devoted to Seismology and Seismic methods of data acquisition, processing and interpretation. The third semester will be devoted principally on subjects from different departments like Numerical Analysis and Computer programming. Besides the regular field work, serious project works of six months’ duration having strictly monitored periodic submission of progress reports related to exploration under the joint supervision of the Department of Applied geology, Dibrugarh University and reputed industrial organizations will be conducted.

Job prospect:
We don’t guarantee jobs but the track record of the department shows that the employability of the students passing out of this department in premiere industries like OIL, ONGC, GSI, Shell, Schlumberger, Halliburton, Reliance, NHPC and many other reputed concerns is quite good. Moreover, OIL and ONGC have started conducting campus selection on regular basis in the recent years.
Eligibility:
Candidates having M.Sc./M.Sc. Tech. degree in Applied Geology/ Geology/ Physics/ Mathematics and any other equivalent degree from any UGC recognized University securing at least 55% marks in aggregate (or. OGPA 7.0 in the scale of 10.0 points) and having Mathematics as a core subject in the degree level. Candidates who have cleared GATE will get preference.
