No, based on the eligibility criteria, you wouldn't be eligible to apply for the IIT JAM program in Geology with a graduation degree in Geography from the University of Calcutta.

The minimum qualification for the JAM Geology (GG) program typically requires a Bachelor's degree in Geology or a related field for three years/six semesters. While Geography is a related field in terms of studying the Earth, it focuses more on human-environment interactions and social aspects, differing from the focus of Geology on the Earth's physical structure and processes.

The JAM Geology program delves into subjects like Petrology, Mineralogy, Paleontology, which require a strong foundation in the core principles of Geology. A Geography degree might not have covered these specific areas in sufficient depth

Several universities offer Master's programs in Geography with specializations like Environmental Geography, Resource Management, etc. These programs might be a good fit considering your background. Some universities offer integrated M.Sc. programs in Geology or Earth Sciences. These five-year programs are designed for students who haven't studied Geology at the undergraduate level.

Based on the information available for IIT JAM 2024, applying for Geology with a Geography degree from Calcutta University might be difficult.  IIT JAM requires candidates to have a Bachelor's degree in Geology or a related field for three years/six semesters. This could include subjects like Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, and Biological Sciences alongside Geology courses.

Your graduation is in Geography, a distinct field from Geology. While there might be some overlap, it likely wouldn't fulfill the specific Geology course requirement for JAM.

No, your B.A. Geography and current M.A. in Geography likely wouldn't make you eligible for the IIT JAM Geology or BHU M.Sc. Geology entrance exam.

IIT JAM typically requires a Bachelor's degree in a relevant science field like Geology, Geophysics, Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, or Environmental Sciences. While Geography might touch on some related topics, it wouldn't be considered a direct equivalent for the Geology program. Similar to IIT JAM, BHU M.Sc. Geology entrance exams often require a Bachelor's degree in Geology, Geophysics, or other allied earth science subjects.

Hello,

The eligibility criteria for M.Sc in Forensic Science is that the candidate must have passed B.Sc Forensic Science or B.Sc degree or any other relevant undergraduate degree with Science subjects from any recognized University, college, or institution. Hence, you are eligible to study Master's in Forensic Geology.

Hope this helps,

Thank you
