Hello,

Survey - Geographers can specialize in surveying, either by joining the Survey of India or state survey departments or private organizations. Surveyors map the surface of the earth through mathematical observations and field work. This is one of many geography jobs in India. Urban and Regional Planning - The specialisation is concerned with planning, housing, and development projects with respect to their location and utilization of available land-space. There are degree courses available in this stream. Town Planning - Town planners are employed by public and private organizations engaged in urban planning and design and by NGOS involved in rural development projects. Many universities offer Diploma courses in the specialised field of town planning.Remote Sensing - Studies of quickly changing phenomena such as floods, drought and forest fires, etc. Remote sensing satellites provide a variety of information about the earth's surface. Climate Change Analysis - As a professional in this field, geographers are required to analyse scientific data and conduct research concerning climate and climate change and make prediction regarding the future of Earth's climate and weather.
Geospatial Analyst - A geospatial analyst analyses geographical data, designs databases, uses this data in GIS applications for a wide array of sectors including military, real estate, environment, and government. Depending on their area of specialisation, geographers may be employed as forest managers or in agricultural or economic institutes or as demographers in government and research organizations. A geography background is also an asset for careers in travel and tourism, particularly for travel Journalism. You can also be employed as climatologists, geomorphologists, GIS specialists, and hydrologists. For this you need to make sure you opt for the right partner. Choosing right academic partner is always a challenge. There are many universities that offer this course, but from my own personal experience, I would suggest Lovely Professional University. LPU proves to be the best academic partner for many students. B.A. From LPU is always talk in town. I hope this helps. All the Best. !
