The Centre for Climate Change and Water Research (C3WR) has been established in the Suresh Gyan Vihar University. The key focus of C3WR is to deliver up to date knowledge of geospatial technologies like Remote Sensing, Geographic Information System (GIS), Global Positioning System (GPS), and Satellite Image Processing. The primary goal of C3WR is to develop infrastructure and facilities for climate change research and coherent multi-disciplinary research group and manpower to engage in large projects of national and social relevance. C3WR is extensively involved in teaching, research, consultancy programmes towards the needs of developing and demonstrating the technology of satellite data utilization and development of Geoinformatics for various applications.

Programme Details
