SIG believes in giving its students a friendly yet motivating learning atmosphere. After all, it is through this holistic exposure across different learning platforms that SIG is able to deliver geoinformatics professionals as per industry standard. As part of its learning environment, SIG encourages its students to step out of the confines of the campus and participate in conferences and seminars on Geoinformatics across the country. Here is a brief overview of the conferences that the students from SIG have attended till date:
