In the last 7 years about 16 training programmes have been organised by this department. The various institutions which has funded these programmes include the World Bank Hydrology Project, ISRO UNESCO, UGC, COSTED, AICTE etc.,These programmes have benefited large number of scientists/engineers working in the frontier areas of applied geology in the Universities/Industries/Research Institutes.
