Geology Department

Introduction of Geography Department:

Geography is one of the branches of geological sciences that studies places, areas, people, environment and the relationships between these elements. This field examines the spatial distribution of various components of the earth's geography, including climate, soil, population, economy, and culture. The field of geography is divided into two main divisions, which are physical geography and human geography. As a science, geography uses various tools and techniques, including mapping, geographic information system (GIS), field studies, etc. This discipline examines the complex effects and interactions between the environment and humans and contributes to a better understanding of the world and its related issues.

Vison:

The perspective of the Department of Geography is to create a well-known scientific core related to geographical topics in the country and the region, which has a quality scientific and educational system in accordance with the labor market and international standards, empowering the country in the field of academic progress, creating and developing human capacities and from The basic vision of this scientific and academic unit is to provide quality and balanced scientific and educational services for the young generation of the country.

Vision Turning the Department of Geography into one of the best educational and academic units at the national and regional level until 1415 in a way that meets the needs of government organizations in terms of education and research and provides solutions for the government and service institutions in the field of geography, regional studies and earth technology. To be among the top departments in the region at the level of the country and the region.

Mission:

Accurate knowledge of the earth's surface in relation to humans, effective use of natural and human resources, evaluation of its advantages and disadvantages, as well as access to the earth's facilities and natural resources are among the basic rights of the citizens of every country. In order to realize this national ideal, the establishment of educational and educational institutions in the field of geography for the purpose of training trained professionals and expertise in the field of this field is considered an urgent national need. In order to achieve these goals, the structure of the Department of Geography, decorated with conventional sciences, has the following goals:

• Training of geographers, scientific, professional and specialized staff
• Active participation of department graduates based on today's modern scientific and technical methods in the public sector, including the Ministry of Urban Planning and Lands, the Ministry of Rural Development and Rehabilitation, municipalities, the National Environmental Protection Agency, the National Agency for Combating Natural Disasters, etc. and national and international institutions

• Advancement of technical and professional affairs of government departments and the country's natural resources sector by the graduates of this department

• Creation of a specialized master's program in different parts of natural geography (Applied Geo-morphology and regional development), human geography (Economic Geography, Population and resources)

• Upgrading the academic degree of professors to the scientific degrees of master and doctor

Scientific promotion of professors for scientific promotion

• Revival of geography journal

• Selection and recruitment of new academic staff according to the needs of the department

• Authoring new required textbooks

General Goals:

The general study of the earth as human habitation and the detailed knowledge of the surface of the earth and the processes going on in it in relation to humans, the effective use of natural and human resources, the evaluation of its advantages and disadvantages, as well as access to the facilities and natural resources of the earth are among the basic rights of every citizen. The country is considered. In order to realize this national ideal, the establishment of educational and educational institutions in the field of geography for the purpose of training skilled, professional and expert personnel in the field of this field is considered an urgent national need. In order to achieve this great national goal, the existing structure of the Department of Geography, decorated with conventional sciences, has the following goals:

Training of geographers, scientific, professional and expert staff

• Active participation of graduates based on modern scientific and technical methods in the public sectors such as the Ministry of Urban and Land Development, the Ministry of Rural Development, municipalities, the Department of Combating Natural Disasters, etc. and also in the non-governmental sector of national institutions and international.

• Advancement of technical and professional affairs of government departments and the country's natural resources sector by the graduates of this department

• Greater effectiveness in the direction of regional development (urban and rural) at the country level with the existence of geographers

• Quantitative and qualitative analysis of figures and data related to renewable and non-renewable natural resources

• Application of geography in the direction of human, environmental and social development

Educational goals:

The study of geography has various goals, which are often divided into two categories: physical and human. These goals generally include the following:

• Better understanding of Geoscience
• The study of land formations, geographic structures and climatic phenomena in order to gain a deeper understanding of the Earth's environment.

• Anticipation and control of crises:

Providing analysis and research to predict and control natural crises such as earthquakes, floods, climatic damages, etc.

• Environmental protection:

Studying the effects of human activities on the environment and providing solutions for its sustainable protection and management.

• Economic and social development:

Investigating geographical effects on economic and social development, distribution of welfare points and increasing the quality of life.

• Urban and regional management:

Providing optimal solutions for urban management, investigating urban developments and infrastructure problems.

• Development of agriculture and natural resources:

Studying the distribution of natural resources, optimizing the use of water and soil, developing sustainable agriculture.

• GAS application and Sensing remote:

Using mapping tools and geographic information system (GIS) for accurate analysis of space and time.

• Studying social and cultural aspects:

Understanding cultures, social relations and the effects of geographical environment on human behavior

Laboratory and educational equipment:

The laboratory and educational equipment in the field of geography provide a basic platform for teaching and research in various fields of this field. In the following, some of these equipment and laboratories of this department are mentioned:

• The GIS and Remote Sensing Laboratory
