Geography

Learning about the world around us gives us a bird’s eye view. Our aim is to take a closer look at the Universe and explore its components. We would identify the individual components and discover the relationship between them. Are there any similarities, what makes them different, where do we fit into it all? We would be looking into this and many more. It is expected that at the end of this course you would be able to write an article for the newspaper or a children’s magazine, describing the universe using illustrations and discussing the effects this has on human existence.
