MSc Marine Geophysics

2 Years On Campus Masters Program

Andhra University

Program Overview

The idea of introducing Geophysics as a subject of study in Andhra University was conceived during 1946, and the Department of Geophysics was started in 1949 to train students in two branches viz., (1) Meteorology and Oceanography and (2) Physics of Earth. It is not a mere coincidence that the Geological Survey of India had commenced extensive geophysical surveys for oil in the Cambay Basin a couple of years later in 1948. It signifies the vision of successive Vice-chancellors of the University to initiate new courses to provide trained manpower to cater to the needs of the Nation.
