Industry has a curious relationship with environment. Rapid industrialization coupled with uncontrolled exploitation of natural resources has affected environment, by ultimate changes in the natural cycle, causing impact and/or effects on air, water, land, flora, fauna, human settlement and health of people. Industrial development, besides economic growth, brings along with it many environmental problems. Thus, the knowledge in the field of Environmental Sciences to all concerned is of prime importance. Though industrialization is an integral part of India's progressive economy trained environmental professionals are scarce to find. In recent times a strong need has been felt for trained professionals who can handle the operations process including monitoring & control of various pollution aspects with professional expertise.
