will be organized to involve students in different engineering colleges and degree colleges.
In view of the growing activities and emerging opportunities in remote sensing in India, there is a strong need to
launch an awareness program among the young engineering and science graduates about the career opportunities
in this field. The involvement of multidisciplinary subjects
in remote sensing will attract students and researchers
with various backgrounds to this field. The GRSS Chapter
has a very important role to play in education and research
as remote sensing has already emerged as one of the major
technologies that will significantly influence the lives and
economy of our community in the coming years.
